    Wasn't positive which section this best be in so sry if wrong.

    Truck is a 96 Kenworth W900L. Black with everything being turned blacked out. Bumper, air breathers ect.

    Attempting to decide which colour lettering would go good with that?

    Thought maybe some people have pictures to show?

    Thanks

    Red or blue. Purple might look good. Yellow would stand out great

    Perhaps I read it wrong. I could swear he said it was going to be completely blacked out.

    Go with a silver lettering. It must be able to be read from a distance of 50 feet while stopped, as with all your other fun numbers required.

    Use a bright white or silver. Chrome would be too much and that finish n the vinyl doesnt hold up that well in the elements. With a blacked out truck a nice clean lined white letter would look good. Then you white letter the tires and you styling and profiling
