I just bought all of my new suspension parts that Im going to install in the next couple of weeks but Im going to visit the powder coater before I install them. I need help picking a color combo. Here's what I got...



K-Sport full coilovers
ASR Brace
Function 7 LCA's
OEM 22mm Sway bar

Here's what I was thinking...

1. Powder coat the k-sport lower mounts gloss black and polish the ASR brace leaving the rest of the items as is.

2. Powder coat the k-sport lower mounts gloss black, powder coat the ASR brace gloss black and leave the function 7 LCA's and sway bar as is.

3. Go stealth mode - Powder coat the k-sport lower mounts gloss black, powder coat the ASR brace gloss black, powder coat the function 7 LCA's gloss black and leave the sway bar as is (Gloss black).

This is the car they will be going on....I have SIR chrome/polished headlights and black rims with a chrome/polished lip so Im trying to keep the exterior theme of the car black and chrome/polished...




Please help me out here!

 

whatever u want really.

 

I wouldn't do anything to the K-Sports, because odds are they're going to blow out. Not trying to sound like a dick, but that's what they're known for.

 

Even if they do blow I can still keep the lower mounts and use them on another setup...IE FF2's and Tein's...They are all threaded the same.

 

I would leave everything as is, spend your money elsewhere, that's just me.

 

I would not spend the money to beautify those parts, but rather on other things you could purchase. ARC IceBox or somthing along those lines.

Dont spend your money on a $400 intake box rather just get a CAI with a good filter

ARC? wft are you smoking bro? THats the biggest scam ever lol

 

Personally I would leave the shocks as they are. If you are going for a stealthy look powder coat the ASR brace black along with the LCA's.

 

i think they looks sexy as is. Spend your green on other things

QFT

 

whatever makes you happy

 

leave everything the way it is

 

If you are going to do anything to those parts you should have them annodized, noy powdercoated. I think the annodizing will hold better.

whats the difference besides looks? its an LCA how tech are you supposed to get with them hahaha.

 

Your correct and LCA is an LCA but a premium bushing in the LCA makes a better all around LCA period!

 

them parts will be dirtied faster than your mom can say chuck norris.

leave it as is.

 

Looks fine to me, but whatever floats your boat.

 

If it was me. I would just rattle can them a semi black. I dont like to stand out. Thats just me. Nice part you have there BTW.

 

leave it

 

Thanks for all the replies...Ive decided to polish the ASR brace and anodize the bottom mounts gloss black.
