Got a ridiculous amount of things from my GSI just about to go in for powder coat in a few days, mainly under side parts like hubs, arms, axle ect ect.. still unsure which tho black or red, love how it would look clean and sort of original in black but also how it would stand out in red with a black under body but may look power drumish... what would you do ?

Black. I'm not sure red fits in that well with your overall plans.

I'd do the anti roll bar red, and the rest black.

Just to break it up a little.

Red would look good, but unless you are going to go under the car every week to clean it, it won't stay red, whereas black..well, it's protected and never gonna change colour! lol

Black. Anything other than standard colour and you'll be declined by the internet, usually by people with magnolia houses.

could mix it with a bit of silver in places i guess, likes of a silver brake caliper carrier and caliper to match against a black hub ?
