Ok I'm breaking my quad down and I'm doin a retro inspired thing with vintage 79' colors. This dirtbike is my inspiration.
Should I paint the swinger silver like the bike?
or
Would that standout to much on my quad, paint it black like the frame?
Here's a pic of the 79' YZ400.

Paint it silver so It will be different than the frame or an aluminum looking color.
