Hey, whatever you like! My point is only that the color (both in quantity and in quality) of the decal will determine whether the color of the frame looks good. The font is relevant only inasmuch as it determines the quantity of the color of the decal.
The originality of the decals is relevant, but keep in mind that the original decals and original color were chosen to work together. Blindly assuming the original decals will work well with a completely different color, this is gambling.
