Painting front knuckles.... color?

[boat]

While I have my spare set of 94-95 knuckles, I am thinking of painting them, before the new bearings get installed.

To some it really doesn't matter if these are painted or not. But I think it sets it off from another SHO, time taken to pay attention to a little extra detail.

I am thinking these colors:

black
silver
red

thoughts??

Black. I personally like red cars with black wheels.

You should paint your wheels knuckles black and paint calipers red. That will look good!

Gloss black everything. No need to advertise. Anyone that cares will see the gloss black just as fast as if it were bright red.

I say black too.

My Cobras almost look stock all black. I like it that way.

I say paint it after you get the bearings pressed in!

I used a brush on red caliper paint on mine, I think it was duplicolor

black... anything else is ricer land.

What color are mine? Black... x7 on the black..

Red, not orange-red but deep red. Think candy-apple.

That is the kind of red I was thinking of if I went that way. Same color of red that I want to paint my intake with silver or aluminum painted snakes.

go with red man, makes it stand out

kinda crummy to put in extra time, effort, and money to just have something returned to stock appearance... make it special!

only person who's really going to see it is you only when your underneath it anyhow, so do what you like and not worry about people calling it a ricer thing or something because its not black.

No matter what colour you choose, you wont notice it much in a month or so, when it gets its share of dust, dirt, and brake crap.
But if you start out with red, at least it won't completely disappear.
Besides, You want to express that you not only got new parts, you got special new parts.

agreed, sometimes you just have to do what you want! But I always say, you have to live with it!

Since everyone is talking about some 'good' colors, I will chime in as well.

Paint them rainbow.
