I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Which color combo? NEED OPINIONS!

Post by xtel » October 22, 2007

I am looking to add some color to the del sol, just not sure what would look good as far as matching and what not. What color combo would you suggest on this car? (White del sol w/ bronze rims & blue lugs/brake calipers)
Image Lower Control Arms:
black, gold, red, blue

Rear Lower Tiebar:
red or blue

Tow Hooks:
green, blue, black, red

I'm leaning towards: gold lca's, red tiebar, blue rear hook, and green front hook.

I didn't list any silver/polished for a reason. I want real stand-out-ish colors, plus I don't prefer shiny.

If it were me I'd stick to blue for all of the accessories since your lugs are blue.

I was thinkin' about doing that, but someone said the 'blues' may clash.

Where can I find some under-body pics of these parts so I can photoshop them to my liking??

I want it to stand out. Black won't give me that effect.

You could have clashing blues...You could just powdercoat stuff too. Like SRR sway/tie combo. Just coat your own.

Mhmm, yup. Having different blues from different manufacturers isn't bad either. Just make sure you remember which blue is which.
