Looks like the alu one will be restricted to two colors only, due to the fab shop's restriction on lower-MOQ stuff. This opens a few doors to possibilities for color:
Colored polycarbonate
Running future rounds in other colors (ie black/silver now, red/blue next, etc etc)
Getting boards raw (so just sandblasted)
- Let end users get their raw board ano'd/cerakoted/etc
- Find another ano shop willing to do lower quantity stuff
Just some thoughts. I think offering raw would be useful, and perhaps charging a bit more to go through the custom color ano process for a customer. This could have issues for shipping/more handling/etc, but I'll explore it.
