Has anyone used those paints that change colors with the angle? I can't remember the brand but I understand it is pretty expensive. House of Color maybe?
Still, black is best with a subtle touch in my opinion.

kkinderen you're right with the house of color. I struggled with a bunch of different colors but most likely the one you're talking about is the "Chameleon Pearl" Indirect sunlight, my bike is actually purple..bright sunlight..very bright blue metallic. If you get a book, you can see the different shades such as black to crimson red etc. Very cool..very expensive. Tank and both fenders you're looking at close to 1k for the paint.
Link shows what a Chameleon pearl looks like..Blue-Purple
