I have had idea for my troll which I am 50/50 on and want your thoughts on it...
My troll is Gold (as in my pic) and I have a mate who is a powdercoater..
I was thinking about getting springs, panhard, draglink, dropboxes, Harris diffguard ect powdercoated all the same colour. How do you think it would look (especially when flexing), and what colour would look good against the Gold? Maybe same colour as the car? Light blue? Red?
Any thoughts appreciated everyone
Fletcha
P.s If anyone else likes the idea, feel free to post up the colour of your own troll for feedback

Apparentlly rumour has it, one concrete company over here painted one guy's truck pink, as a joke, while he was on holidays and they bosses liked it that much, they changed the whole fleet to pink. lol

Well Fletch, I'm going out on a limb. With gold paint, black plastic parts I reckon a med metallic blue would look really nice.

Yer I kinda had a blue of some sort in mind, didn't think of a metallic though... Damn good idea though seeing as the gold is metallic

Yeah all gold would be a bad look. Maroon or dark green underbody should look ok though.
Maroon would work for sure considering it was a Patrol colour scheme (my brothers 94 Ti is the two tone gold on maroon and looks a treat).

Whatever you do - don't go for white. Our Patrol came in white - it's still white, but will change it into something less demanding soon. It looks good in snow and mud, but that's only for 3 months a year and we're the only white ship in the group we go out with, so we get a lot of jokes along color lines. Funny this - I always thought color doesn't make much of a difference once we're all covered in mud, but seems that's not the case.
