Hey guys, looking to powdercoat my frame VERY soon, and I still can't decide what color to go with. If someone could do a Photoshop for me I would greatly appreciate it :)

Pretty simple on the colors....can you please do one in white, and one in black? Whatever picture works the best. Thank you!

Very nice 400, I sometimes miss mine, probably the most reliable quad I've ever owned(about 3 times), Go with RED I think it'ld look good, too many white frames out there now

i dont have time to do it today right now but maybe this evening, weather you do white or black on your frame, arms and swinger, i would recomend getting some blue rings for your rear hipers and some front hipers with blue rings

it would really tie it together

i dont have blue plastic but i do have blue graphics with blue hiper rings

White and black are so plain. You should do like a Bluevein or a Candy Blue. Check out pappys color page. I think bluevein with your plastics and other accesories would look sweet.

Personally, I think neon orange would look sick.


But it's your bike man.

black. theres sooo much other stuff going on, i think white or another color is too much clutter.

Hey thanks a lot for the compliments guys :macho

And thanks 631kfx400, for giving me all the colorful options to choose from lol
:p Actually seeing it helps a lot.

I was originally leaning towards the black, but now it sort of just blends in...doesn't look too "special". The white is different, but like bbender85 said, I don't know it it's too much.

matt14c, candy blue was on my list too, I originally wanted the frame to contrast the candy blue arms/swinger, but we'll have to see. That blue vein is cool too but not sure how it will look with the candy blue arms/swinger.

Rootar, yea I may just have to switch it up a bit since my rings are getting a little faded. Thanks for the idea, and sick hybrid man! I wish :eek2:

I'm also debating chrome PC. I think it would look good against the candy blue, while having a clean look at the same time.

This is harder than deciding on a name for your child lol...I really appreciate everyone's comments, thanks ;)

i used adobe photoshop cs3. heres my frist attempt at wheels. the ring got kinda fat when i put the tilt on the wheel so it wasnt flat but not bad for a first try.

Nice job on that. The red looks cool for sure, almost like Pappy's fire red, but not sure if I like it against the candy blue. Did you happen to save that document so you can modify it? If you did, can I see one in blue like the a-arms please? If it's too time intensive don't bother, I appreciate you giving it a shot in the first place ;)

Silver looks good but its too close to stock. I say Blue.

I agree with you about that looking too close to stock. The "silver" I am thinking about is Tiger Drylac's Xtreme Chrome powdercoat. I'd imagine it would be harder to do in Photoshop. But it looks like a highly lustrous/reflective silver, and I think it would look awesome with the candy blue to break it up. It's between the blue and chrome right now.

Here's a couple pics of the Xtreme Chrome
