Have you ever noticed that essentially every screen border in the world, no matter a +$200 Focupix, or +$4K Stewart, has a black border?

Have you ever noticed that the one single thing that BMX consistently and vehemently harps on to the DIY screen makers is to make sure there is a black velvet frame?

Do you honestly believe that this unique floating mount was actually a popular item to be commercially built, that it would not overwhelmingly be black by %?

I scanned photos, and didn't find a mockup of the display on the mount. I did not take the effort to find dimensions, let alone comparing these to the KRP500M's, which I also did not look up.

A deep black border has the potential to make the world's greatest 50" television ever made, no matter if you're Bill Gates or the King of Saudi Arabia, to look like a 70" tv recessed a couple of feet into the wall, rather than a 50" stuck out a couple of feet from the wall. The giveaway I think of is reflectivity from the glass during daylight, but since this is the greatest TV ever made, maybe the chances are better than what I'm even thinking of.
Which do you think wives would approve of ?
Thanks for your thoughts on the black border idea, you are right about the black making the panel truly look like it's floating but my Girl's Surfer Yellow, Lemon Color might give me a Charlie Brown / Bumble Bee tuna look, I will eventually get my way and paint that rear wall a darker red and then the idea for a black border will work best here.
