As above, trying to work out what colour to paint my fuel tank, the under of the car is being covered in red stonechip(red waxoil) ARBs and lower arms ect are gloss black and braided fuel and brake line. Now what's people opinions, paint the tank red to blend in or black to stand out with everything else?
Cheers

The silver looks really good! Been flicking though some pictures on here and I think I'll keep it a lil simple, red car, black parts apart from the yellow Koni damper and red springs.

Twins: Cheers bud, He just told me it would be red, nearly the same red as the car. was going to pm you, do you have a picture of your car front straight under, with the car up on ramps, I though I see one in the mag feature, but cant find the mag.
Fiend: I'll drop you a pm when I speak to him and find out.

My fuel tank is red, but wish it was gloss black or silver. I didnt think you could have a fuel tank powdercoated as they have rubber inside parts, or so i heard something like that.

Puss. That silver looks really good, but I think its cos its going/gone on a white car, silver looks very stock. But I'm still not sure, it will either end up silver or black now.

Twins: really loving your pic, was there a pic from straight under neth? Have you got braided fuel lines and brake line under the car?
Be prepaired to have another rst look as good under neth as yours lol.
Matt: don't think your get an answer to that, but I'd bet it was a lot.

The main fuel and brake lines are standard ,powder coated ,just got the usual little bits in braided and just off the master cylinder to to the front inner wings ,cost wise not as much as you would think, as all the prep and body and paint under there we did ,just paid for the powder coating i think for all the powder coating in black was about Ł170 then the springs were extra as fancy colour and i also had the shocks wet painted ,so i think for the shocks and springs was Ł150 then just the cost of the stone chip and red paint
