Fonts folder in your WoW directory or ClearFont2 following the instructions to uncomment that part of the code (it's commented because it causes taint).

Oh - the color? I don't think you can change that. It's hard-coded in, I think.

Wanted to test Classcolors and/or just other colors to friends/guild /pvp.
Maybe it would have seen really kewl, maybe not ;P

Anyways, didn't think that it would be managable either, but wanted to make it sure. Thanks.

You can still check before you give up. Try and find where it's coded in the FrameXML. Try looking at GlobalStrings.lua and other file names that sound like they could have it in there.

If you can't find it anywhere, then it might be completely unmodifiable via AddOns, as Seerah said.
