I have a few tail fillers with the HONDA in white letters and some with HONDA in a red color. Is there a reason for the 2 colors? Were the red letter fillers for non US models. Maybe someone can enlighten me on these please? |

Red letters were for 82/83 models (at least in Oz). |

I like the red - seems like 99% of the F's I see have the white letters so its nice to be a bit different. |
