I like it...looks different. I'm color blind, so excuse me if you did this, but I think the numbers would look good painted to match the silver. On the bezel edges, go with what ever color your interior is.

looks good. I also like the outer edge matching those inner pieces of the circles...

Yess sir' that looks great! I'm gonna base the color on what I paint my truck. Cause it'll be two tone with a colored stripe so whatever that stripe is I'll paint it that same color.
