So, I've got a black bedlined rig, and as I'm doing the suspension work for the SAS, everything is getting painted semi-gloss Rustoleum black... what would be a good color for steering/suspension linkage and diff covers to give it some contrast? Neon green? Safety orange? Bright yellow? Red? What do you guys think?
-
I vote for red, or blue.

From what i've seen, bright contrasting colors don't look very good. try some other darks silver or gunmetal. ;)

Neon Pink and bright purple ;D LOL
My wife wants the undergarage of her truck powder coated pink lol
-
Pink? BRILLIANT! ;D
-
I'd say "rainbow" just cuz u asked ... :-/
I like primer personally.
-
Shit-brown Rustoleum rusty metal primer? :P

I've always thought John Deere or Kawasaki Green looked good with black. If you buy the real tractor paint it is extremely tough from what I understand.

i'd go for a blood red, not as bright like fire engine, or candy apple.
blue is over rated, and plus, calmini have blue
then green, like someone said, john deere styles, or go a crimson or shamrock green. my vit was a modded version of shamrock green of some sort.
i dont think bright colours go too well.
maybe a gun metal grey or silver as well.
or how about pure white, like what a powder coat finish looks like?
be interesting to see how these all go.

On the note of blue: I was flipping through an issue of Petersons I picked up a week or two ago that had a Sidekick with blue suspension components in the reader's rides section, and at first, just flipping through, I thought it had a Calmini lift, but it had an SAS with blue parts. Blue is too reminicent of Calmini... and I never really liked teh look of the lift with the rest of the vehicle being black.
I'm starting to see it your guys way: dark colors would probably look best :)
-
try a colour that is not so out there, and can be easily missed by fred average, but will make the keen wheeler looks twice and scratch his head.
more a sleeper look, but the good bits have a slight high-light to it. you know, just to say this aint just a pretty looking piece, it actually does something good.
-
Pink it will make people look twice. ::)
-
Yellow, no contest ;D

I'm thinking that spray on Mud that was posted in another thread, then you would never need to wash under your ride ;D

My rig already has REAL mud on the undercarriage, and I don't wash it as often as I should :P
(Makes it a bitch to work on, too ;D)
