Most radios towards the higher end these days have user configurable colors. 
On my mostly black older Clarion DXZ-835MP you can set the colors using RGB 
values (255-000-000 for red red for example). I got mine to perfectly match 
the orange-red-ish color of the dash in my 5ktq. Plus it has user 
configurable margquee's so you can program it so scroll 
http://www.AudiFans.com across the display ever few seconds like I did ;-).

Get last years second from top of the line model on Ebay and you'll pay 
pennies on the dollar. My DXZ-835MP is ~4 years old now and when new was 
north of $700 retail IIRC... I paid about $300 for it (brand new in sealed 
retail box) about 6 months before they dropped it and brought out the new 
version that had 1 extra petty feature.
