Default Rear Bumper Letters on EB

I'm thinking about putting some red letters in Corvette on the rear bumper. Anyone have a pic of red letters on an Electron Blue? Does anyone have a pic of Chrome letters on an EB?

Sorry, all I have pics of is black on Quicksilver. IMHO chrome looks great against EB, want more subtle, go black chrome!

I just put on my black letters today. I'll get a pic when i get off work. I debated the chrome as well considering the exhaust plate and the exhaust are back there as well, but ended up going with gloss black. Looks great.

I actually think the chrome looks okay on the EB, but personally I prefer nothing at all. I definetely would not do red on EB.

Here is my pic of black on my EB. Pretty simple, but stands out nonetheless. I might eventually do stainless in the rear, but for now, this will suffice.

I have the red reflective letters that blend in with the tail lights. I'll see if I have a good photo somewhere....
