Color Scheme

[bushwesl]

Ok, so I'm in the process of building/transferring over to an aftermarket frame. The frame that I'm picking up has a brand new silver vein PC, and the swingarm that I'll be using is brand new and has a silverish PC. I'll be running my red Fullbore's and red hubs. The question is, do you think this color scheme will look good? I know, I know... I'm being really picky and OCD here, but for some reason I'm thinking that the silver vein and/or the silver has got to go, but I just can't justify doing it because it is brand new. IF I do decide to change it, what color should I go with?

To give you an idea here is what the frame and swingarm look like.







And most of the parts on here will be transferring over.

honestly ur original setup is like perfect i love it and i think u should stick to it now i u could keep tha silver PC but ur gonna look pretty much everybody else ur original stands out a lottt better

Wow, I think it'll be a sharp-looking R. I kind of like the original one with that black frame, though. I personally love the red plastic, exactly what you have. It looks a lot better than my still-factory-painted-and-faded '88 TRX that I'm working on right now. I don't think you could really build a bad-looking R, unless you had some of that purple plastic that I've seen a few times. The guys that ride the rare purple TRX's must either feel very secure in their manhood or just be joy-riding on their wife's quad.

What kind of frame is that and where did you get it.

think it will look great!

I like the silver vein but you can't go wrong with black and chrome!!!

Thanks for all the replies! I'm sure it'll look better when it's all put together. It's just that the whole color combo isn't what I would have picked out if I were coating it myself, but I guess I'll just have to embrace what I've got.

The frame is an LSR link/no-link pro-peg frame with an LSR DC-2 no-link swingarm. I'll be running chrome LSR DC-4 long travel a-arms with Custom Axis 19.25" long travel shocks. Now I just need to find a Custom Axis 17.5" no-link rear shock to complete the package. I really, really don't want to have to buy a new one, so if anyone has any idea where I could locate one it would be greatly appreciated! I'm also looking for a set of AC pro-peg nerfs that fit aftermarket frames if anyone knows where I could find some of those too.
