Are you going to ad another color anywhere else on the truck? Any lettering, pinstripes, logos or graphics? That would be a good starting point.

the rest of the truck will be pretty plain... other than the odd chrome/stainless peice. but the interior and engine compartment does have blue highlights here and there... just for the odd combination of blue and orange

Maybe do the chrome with a blue outline.

Leave it alone will look odd with nothing else the same color

I would just outline the letter with a thin black outline. to make them stand out a little.

nice fade. outline it in a darker orange and fade the letters...i dont think that it would be odd on a solid color..

75silverstep, that jumps right out at you. I think that looks pretty good.
XXL's suttle version looks good to.
Oh the drama.
