I sprayed my bars and crank satin black. my headset came in anodized purple and i did all the bolts and the pedals on the bike in silver using a can of 5 wheel steel as it lasts ages, then gave them a thin coat of metallic blue which gave them the impression of being anodized. looks good. When i packs in raining il go out an get you a picture if you would like

just another idea, don't do it black, do it brown, with brown handle bars etc, would look a bit like a army bike if you got it right lol.

I used to do loads of biking a few years back and always used to be buying new parts constantly just the same as i am now with cars. I've got a 24 seven bmx, kona jump bike, gt idrive cross country bike and a custom built road bike. Keep up with your hobby and no doubt it will move onto cars as soon as you are old enough.
