Default Powder coat color ideas

I am going to powder coat a set of fender strut to put on my big blue pearl super glide just for a different look. I dont want black but not sure what shade of blue PC would look good with big blue pearl. Suggestions?

I second the gloss black option. But if you opt for blue, PM the poweder pro, he might have a good color match for you.

problem is just doing the fender struts is going to give your bike a very heavy unbalanced look... your going to need to tie that in up front on the bike a bit... the fender struts now pull the chrome from the middle and front of your bike to the rear for a smooth color transition. Trust me i am the first one to say POWDER IT, but on the same note you want the bike to still have a smooth flow to the eye. just my 2cents... also it will look strange to have the sissy bar sticking up in the chrome... so if you do the struts i would highly suggest the sissy bar, battery box, and fuse box as well... possibly your dust caps or lowers

Good point, I was wondering if doing just the struts would look like a sore thumb. I need to think about this more.
