This winter i plan on tearing my quad down to paint it. I would love to have powdercoating done, but dont have the money. so i will spray it. anyway, i am thinking of ideas on what would look good. first pic is its current look, second is one of the ideas i have for it. good? bad? other suggestions?

I would go black on the frame. Also if you are going to do that color red make sure you match the colors of the shock springs. Thats the first thing I noticed. I would say just got all black IMO.

here it is in all black. and the reason why it was a darker red, is because that is the color of my new riding gear.
