Currently all of our steel products (4 links, control arms, c-notches, brackets, etc.) are powdercoated a Satin Black finish. We have had some requests over the years for products coated in Silver. I think most will agree that Silver looks better, but will be tougher to keep clean. Offering both colors would push inventory levels too high or cause a delay in shipping. Neither of which are acceptable, so a decision must be made.

So, speak now or forever hold your peace..... Black or Silver?

Black!

What about offering silver and a handful of other colors on a custom order basis? Inventory stays low with the addition of some unassembled, bare metal parts and you can appease those that must be different. Maybe gloss black, silver, red, a few basic colors. Just a thought:)

I voted black. You know what they say, once you go black everything else just seems so dam hard to keep clean...

The black looks clean, but silver adds detail. Lets face it, most of us like "the look" provided by the suspension upgrades as well as the feel. Silver sure looks nice through those big billet rollers.

IF you only do one color I think it has to be black.Let the full on custom guys re-do theirs if need be.
