Default Rear Corvette Letters - Question

What was the factory color and material for the rear bumper Corvette lettering in 1987?
Any one know if the colors changed with the body color? :confused:

I believe they match the body color and have the black trim on the center of the lettering. Material? I don't know, but if you rub the black it comes off. :( Someone got a little agressive with mine in the past.

My '89 has black over body color letters. Appears to be a one piece plastic part.
