Color Schemes?

[Foxhound013]

Durring my rebuild I planned on powder coating the frame a different color. My plastics are red and has the black center plastic piece, they're 04 plastics. I wondered what you guys thought about a blue frame with black a arms and swingarm or option 2 red frame with black a arms and swingarm or option 3 black frame with red mettalic and red a arms and swing arm. Any other variations you guys think would be cool let me know. I'm open to suggestions.

Heres a picture of what mine looks like now.

I said green plastics dumb *** cant you read looks like someone failed reading class.

[Foxhound013]

lol, No need for name callin. Sorry for that I did miss that part in the reading. Okay so now that thats cleared up, I personally still think it would look odd lol. I just don't like those colors. If you ever do it though I'd love to see it.:D

[honda01400ex]

hold on buddy calm the hell down we were agreeing that GREEN AND YELLOW would be ugly as **** on a 400ex doesnt matter what is green and what was yellow it would look like **** either way thats what we were saying. I passed reading class i think maybe you were the one that failed b/c I NEVER SAID THAT THE PLASTICS WERE YELLOW

[KBROOKS400ex]

yeah but how many 400ex's have you seen that are red and yellow???? alot and if you ever came across one that is john deere colors no one else has it. It would probably look pretty cool bc no one else will have an atv that looks like that. Thats why i said those colors so **** off .

[honda400ex2003]

[honda01400ex]

im going my frame all satin black like his and i have same nerfs and bumber as him and my frame is gonna be satin and headers are gonna be satin as well as my nerf bars and the oil tank and bumber and bars are gonna be gloss black!

[hondaking52]

[honda01400ex]
