Personally the red is not my taste it looks good just I like them in black or chrome. Maybe the red is the highlight how big they are...??? I like it just not for me....saint your making moves quick and getting the suspension from elco Warren is great deal very cool
 
I needto get to the yard and get my rear sway bar. Imnot big on the red either :mrgreen: , it does look goodbut im more of a black person myself
 
Ahhhhhhhhh Come on guys , it brightens the bottom portion of ur suspension and sparks it up!!...black to me is just to dual...show peeps what u got...we work hard for what we have and it should be noticed..thats just my two cents!! :wink:

Red it is and its staying...thanks for cking in guys 😀
 
I love it!!! I was going to do mine red just to give my suspension a little contrast. My engine block is red, my calipers are red and I plan on purchasing red aftermarket rear control arms. I got bit by the chrome bug so my core to fender bars, and front sway bar got chromed and my f41 bars and rear sway bar will get the same treatment. Red isn't for everyone nor does it look good on every car but I think it will look good with your color scheme.

Good enough explanation for me :lol:
 
yo what up big saint, great progress man!
i was reading about your hid conversion thoughts.
these are the glass bulb housings i bought, for my elky with the same front end as yours, these also look similar to the regular oem bulbs housing if your looking for the look, not those plastic ones with the clear face and crystal cut lines showing.
