I wouldn't do Transred on the a arms. B/c in Trans Red there is alot of Metallic in it.(Chrome Base) Which makes the PC not as strong. And will wear off faster then one solid color with mayb a clear coat or noc lear coat.

Get the top a arms chromed and the bottoms in Mirror Red.

ummm.....ALL of my bottom a arms get a clearcoat. they will last as long...IF not longer then ANY other color period. the clear is actually harder and more resistant to wear then the color coat. and if you say different....you do a set in anycolor ya want...and ill do mine...then we will hit the trails;)
