I wanted to upgrade my Alto Blue Maverick with Tailgate letters but not sure which one to go with. My favorite are the black OEM ones offered on the Ford site. But those are too dark and was wondering if anyone with Alto Blue has installed those. Alternatively I was thinking to buy those cheap ones from Ebay in Red but not sure about quality and longevity. Any thoughts and experience would be highly appreciated.

I bought the orange ones from eBay you mentioned for my velocity blue maverick I take delivery of next week. I think they would look good on the alto blue as well but thats just my input. Haven’t put them on yet but I do dig the color.

Alto Blue with patriotic letters on tailgate. eBay, about $35. Easy peasy installation. Seem to be good quality. People who see them love 'em.

I went with thin blue line, they complement the Alto Blue and have many people think they look awesome!

I am torn on the same issue - what lettering on Alto Blue? I also want black but I would like to see it on one to confirm if it has enough contrast. I am also considering the vinyl Carbon Fiber on Alto Blue.

The only issue I have with the aftermarket ones is the concerns about quality and longevity, otherwise I would probably go with the red ones. I really don't want to scratch those after one year or so from my paint when they are faded or partially damaged. Most probably going with the OEM black ones but still waiting to see more answers here before final decision.

This the Black Platinum from the Ford accessory website. I used my Ford Pass points to get them free.

Those look great on the brighter colors but not sure how those would be on Alto Blue.

They will come off easily with a heat gun. I am not sure of how long they will last in the FL sun. I am probably doing the same and using the black OEM but I may try some of the Vinyl first. They are cheap enough and I can remove them if they fade out.
The black OEM letters should stand out in sunlight and blend in at night. I just wish I could see a few pix on an Alto Blue...
