What would you do? (A weird subdivision monument)

What would you do for this monument for a subdivision? The dimensions are weird and it's clear no one thought to involve a sign company until AFTER everything was built. :(:(:(

To me the columns are WAY too thick for the amount of sign area to work with.

Any ideas?

My first thought was a board in between the posts with dimensional letters on it.

what's that thing in the middle? uplighting?
agreed, they went overkill with the masonry, I'd have at least made it a bit wider.... panel between the columns seems legit. right option, 1/2" PVC letters & add a border, call it a day.

The tombstone is supposed to be dark mocha colored.. If I add a border the other one looks like a piece of toast...

As a customer would probably say "I think the top needs a bit more pizazz. You know?" Maybe shape the top to be like a peak of a cottage.

as suggested, shape the top to increase the size, a little more color to pop the sign...here's a quick rough idea

aluminum framing skinned with max metal and raised dimensional lettering. Nothing you can do about the gigantic mini masonry
