    On that G21.....maybe black with chrome outline. Can't go wrong with the chrome mentioned above either.

      I'm not a big fan of bubbled letters for some reason, but really like the shadowed look. This is how I did mine. I'm very happy with them, even after the extra hassle involved with a double layer install.

        Definitely get ahold of Andy from Domed Numbers. He worked with me very well with my Orange Crush 220 SANTE. I actually messaged them on Facebook and he was always quick with responses. He had his engineers drawl up samples for me to decide. I finally picked the 3rd set they sent me. I'm a visual person, I like to see what my numbers are going to look like exactly before i order! They also have a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If you don't like the numbers when you get them they'll send you a new set. I'm not sure if that means a new set in a different color or.......However, the Nautique font matches so close, I couldn't see a difference in it and the boat.

        Also, when purchasing use promocode "Planetnautique" for $10 off

          Hate to just resurrect an old thread of mine....but just wondering if there are any more pics of other combos people have done. I feel like due to having gunmetal flake forward and main, I am going to have to do Masters Blue for the registration numbers so that they will stand out and be legible. I'd rather do black chrome/illusion frost, but Would probably give the wardens probable cause to randomly pull up to check things out! Has anybody thought about putting the #'s above the rub rail? Just thinking that if I go with Masters Blue, it would look better getting it closer to the blue in the gel coat so it looks to be part of it rather than down in the middle of the gunmetal, breaking it up. Thoughts??? Here's a build pic of my boat and a sneak shot of it just to get some ideas and input. Sorry to bother everybody with this again...I just have a lot to think about while I wait on taking delivery!!

            Crazy thought....wonder what a tan/brown would look like to accent the tower accent?

            Even crazier thought...wonder if anyone has ever hit up seadeck to make faux teak numbers?

              I would say with as much contrast as possible to reduce reasons to be stopped! I'm going with basic white domed letters on a gunmetal background.

                Now that would be pretty sweet!! But I'm sure it would be outrageously expensive!

                  Here's a few phone pics of some playing around I did using paint...(couldn't rotate the text except in 90* increments so I just print them both out and cut the number portion out to place it wherever) First pic is above the rub rail...and second pic is below like most everybody has done it.

                    I ended up going with the Black Chromax on the Gunmetal. I think there will be enough contrast. We'll see how it turns out.

                      Def post pictures!! That's what I would rather do myself, I'm just afraid there won't be enough contrast!

                        Beg4Wake, the Black chromax ones are almost an exact match on the gunmetal flake ;(. Even harder to make out on the water. I like them so I'm going to leave on and have a second set in the boat I think in case I get hassled. Then I can say I have them but didn't have time to install. I think Black is probably the way to go. Click image for larger version

                          I need to see more of your boat! That looks an awful lot like mine!

                          And Yeah...I think I'm going to go with Masters Blue now for sure. Our game wardens are sticklers and I know that'll just give them a reason to pull me over constantly. But thanks for sharing that. Def made my mind up!

                            Best I have for now. Not sure why I don't make more time to take pictures...

                                Ironman....I went with the all Masters Blue Domed Numbers (my dealer ordered and paid for them). I think they turned out great! These are the best pics I have of mine...
