The intent of the rule is that everyone have easily visible numbers by using white, against the red/blue background. (Either as an outline, or the body color of the number).

Do these numbers fit that intent? Sure, I would say they do.

I agree, the intent for this rule is to be able to read the numbers on the bumpers, the white numbers with purple outline clearly meets this intent and the rule.

As others have said, I have seen numbers on bumpers that were questionable (to me and others anyway) that apparently passed inspection.

There is no rule saying you can't ouline your white numbers, and I've seen that a lot too.

I say you're all set... But Q&A may be the way to go if you're worried.
