I like the red, orange, black, and chrome letters that I'm seeing, but I put black reflective letters on my Alto blue truck. I'm very happy with the result, and I think they would be a good choice for your truck too.

I purchased some raised lettering and some duplicolor custom wrapspray since I couldn't find lettering in a color I wanted. I think it turned out great. I was hoping for more of a purple but the blue really pops in the sun. So far its held up through multiple car washes and a winter super well.

This is what I used: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CVP7KL1
I think the trick is using multiple very thin coats and making sure there is absolutely no grease or anything on the letters beforehand.

Matte Black on mine, however I like how the orange looks and matches the interior accents.

+1 for matte black, but there are no wrong answers to this question.

Is this the Ford OEM letters or some others? I have the Carbonized Gray but have not put on the Ford SS / silver letters yet that I got. Thanks

I wanted something more was a bit more distinctive ... maybe a bit much for some, not me ;-)

Note, I printed the "Ford" trailer hitch cover
