Depends what you are going to use it for. For example, if you were going to do a show car in the city, gloss black with window tint ah la movie style CIA cars looks great. If you are going touring in the desert it would be a bit bloody hot though. Always liked gunmetal grey myself.

Lime green or Canary yellow lol with matching sunnies
Dont colour code the bullbar leave it black or charcoal metallic grey.
Then you'll stand out

Trent Leen had his comp truck which was a GQ
Mid wheel base Patrol lime green looked awesome


Dont go red,, not very UV any shade of white very forgiving for dents and scratches

Of you're likely to be pushing through scrub and/or scratching it, then avoid darker colours
