What about no contrast !
White on white in a truck doesn’t make much sense ?
I guess that's a "no combo". Remember the smartasses when we were kids saying "White is not a color"? Reminds me of when I was building car models. I'd paint every detail and so did my buddies. Some kids would build w/o a stitch of paint, just glue them together white on white on white on white. We used to give them a hard time .

My friend (older than me) was a body man at a GMC/Cadillac dealership and he was constantly dumpster diving prime parts for decades. It depends on the dealership I guess.
