Despite your dismissal of black I'm going to encourage you to consider reflective black letters.

I have reflective black on my Alto Blue Mav, and they NEVER, EVER look black. Sometimes medium gray, sometimes silver, and in the right light even a gold color. And the guy who's tailgating you at night sees super bright reflective silver.

Them’s black? Wow, that looks nice!

Having the same dilemma. Just wanted something other than black. Thinking hard about dark grey or stainless steel. Possibly white. I like the yellow letters and if I lived in Green Bay or was a Packers fan would probably go with that šŸ™ƒ

I asked AI what would be the best color and it came back with this: " The most direct complementary color to green, according to the color wheel, is red. However, green also pairs beautifully with other colors depending on the desired effect, such as orange and yellow for high-energy contrasts, pink and purple for regal or romantic palettes, and brown, gray, beige, and white for a natural or balanced feel. "

At this point I am leaning towards red still, but Orange is also possible. I am sure my wife will have some input on this (and all) topics.

I have the Eruption Green and I’m trying to decide what color tailgate letters would look good other then Black…..
I hav the same dilemma wih my 2025 green machine. All other trim is black so I’m leaning toward that but want it o pop somehow. Maybe I’ll try black graphite.
