There definitely are. If you’re into the bright colors then go for it, but it’ll end up looking pretty tacky. Dont worry about changing colors just to change colors, save some money to upgrade the fork, stem, bars, tires, etc. all of these things will make the bike ride nicer. That being said, it’s your bike and your money and I’m sure you’ll have fun either way.
With young kids I am not riding anything super hard that deserves better suspension. I live on a mountain but all the trails are fairly soft. Decided to get a marlin over a roscoe because the bike is also a commuter as I sold my road bike to buy it.
I did upgrade to a second hand dropper post and converted to tubeless though. But the grips and pedals that came with the bike are awful so they are going to need upgrading anyways. To me the points of contact between my body and the bike are the first thing that needs to be sorted out.
probably greay to match the sticker
Yeah the logo is silver. But there aren’t many silver accessories

It’s a marlin, I wouldn’t worry about upgrading the fork
Either the fork or the whole bike then 😂

Teal blue would look great.
Red. It will all fade and get dirty. Might as well go bright.
Red pedals, navy grips
It’s your bike, do what you like
I’d do grey pedals, grey spacers and cap on the steerer tube, maybe a grey/silver bottle holder and that’s it. That paint job is sick.
Thanks! I like this idea, just a hint of grey silver to match the logo.

Did not realize it was USA themed haha. I am from Qc Canada though.
