underside ideas please
hi all im doing a underside restro on my red esccos and im now at the stage to start thinking about what colours to use to get the bits and pieces powder coated.. ive put up a post in pictures gallery but can any of you esccos owners give me any tips on what would look nice,
car is red foor will be painted red... under bonnet is bling with blue samcos i was thinking about keeping the blue going underneath somewhere... any ideas ?? thanks |
Yes plenty of ideas, but they are all my own :blabla: Looks like we are at the same stage fella :top:
Im doing a resto , click under my signature and good luck ;) |
I think yellow is a nice contrast to red! :top: Or green, like when you see the green strip on a red fiesta rs turbo :cool:
|
If you do want to keep the blue what about blue rear arms with blue main prop shaft into silver diffs? with a blue rear anti roll bar? i wouldnt overkill it though mate,just enough subtlety and with blue on show so that its noticeable and would make somebody kneel down to have a closer inspection...this is where blue rear arms would work as they would be visible through the rear wheel and arch :top:
Just an idea mate ;) |
yes my main thought was blue for the arms and beam silver for anti roll bar and hangers etc prop i would leave black as it wouldnt look gud or it could be going ott...
komm88 im not a lover of green at all and yellow is going to be used in all the polly bushes... redrsmk5 cheers for the idea pretty much the same as i had going on in my own little noodle... :top: |
