Also, all that above being said; There is no reference to how bright or dark, the amount of light reflected, the yellow is...  :banghead:

School bus yellow is always a safe choice. Problem is different people see colours differntly than others. What may look like a bright yellow to one, may be greenish to another.

Will this yellow be ok?  The yellow is a "john deere yellow" (picture white balance sucked).  I've got some 6" numbers to toss on there.  My only concern is where the yellow\green split, will there be enough room for full numbers?  Thanks.

Looks fine to me. But its the tech guys that have the final say.

Cool.  I figured it'd be as much.  My main concern was with how the tail numbers would come out.  I managed to squeeze 6" on there, and the 8" up front.  Should I possibly add a main border around the numbers?  Might define things a bit more?

According to CCS, you are allowed to use down to 4" IF the 6" #'s won't fit on your tail section; however, I don't know if a paint-scheme reducing the available area will count as a reason for using the smaller #'s.

I think that so long as the numbers are as large as possible, are applied neatly and clearly visibly, and the background is appropriate, you'll likely be OK during tech; but it is always at the discretion of the inspectors.
