I am having trouble changing the font color of the text on the lower portion of my form from grey to white to make it stand out against my background

Hi,

The quick fix would be to inject this CSS to your form:

.form-product-item.hover-product-item {
    color : white !important;
}

Here is my test form to show the changes:
