If you need to color text of Gui instances set the TextColor3 property.

TextLabel.TextColor3 = Color3.new(1, 0, 0) --red text

I might be able to do it myself but i don’t know where the billboard GUI will be located once it is Instanced

do you know what the exact place the text label will be located?

Put it on the character’s head.

remoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, name)
	
	
	local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	
	
	local filteredName = game:GetService("TextService"):FilterStringAsync(name, plr.UserId) 
	
	local filteredNameAsString = filteredName:GetNonChatStringForBroadcastAsync() 
	

	local nameGui = char.Head:FindFirstChild("NameGui")
	
	local nameLabel = nameGui:FindFirstChild("NameLabel")

better way to put the billboardgui to the player head is using .Adornee so you dont have to move around the gui, use .Adornee instead of .Parent
