I got my front cross member done in Black and my cradle done in Black. What color would you get your arms, sway bar,rack,springs,etc powder coated? The car color is red with grey stripe, may paint black next year.
I'm getting a sweet deal on powder coating.
paid 20 for cross member and about 70 for cradle. Please post your pictures.

I think I personally would stay with black(thats boring though isnt it?) but then maybe Red(my gt is red). The brighter colors show dirt and grime more. I think Archie did a lot of his suspension on the Stinger in yellow.

Dslice is right,
Archie did all of his suspension parts in yellow,
and I did all of mine in red

So,how about Silver?
(Would go well with black,and in the mean time match that silver stripe on the car)

BTW The red 4 from you is now back on the street again

I would say go with either grey or red. Those would look the best.

I believe when I was all done I was in the neighbor hood of a grand.
(Sandbasted everything myself,exept the crossmember and the cradle to keep the cost down to a minimum)

Little Red was a little pain. The clutch disc and pressure plate were fine, it was the clutch fork through the bell housing that was frozen. Now all it really needs is a few ball joints, a tie rod end or two, maybe a rack & pinion, brakes all the way around and possibly a bigger engine
