windowed carbon lettering, a red 5.
i'd be fine with the silver lettering being windowed carbon as well

Painting a fork isn't hard, but if you don't have a fork that has a twill weave as an outer layer of carbon, you aren't going to get that same window effect.

I will as soon as my new gravel frame arrives :) I painted a few bikes which had carbon forks and it didn't feel harder to paint carbon than it was painting aluminum or steel. I' m a bloody amateur though so it may become a total desaster, mind you
