Question Suspension parts color?

Quick opinion, upgrading some parts on my red z28. Should I do red or black suspension parts on my car? Thanks!

Black. I doubt the red would match your paint correctly and it would be close enough that it wouldn't look right. JMHO.

I was gonna do black on my car, but did red because they didn't have what I wanted at the time in black... maybe I'm just impatient.

Get the black, red and black look butch.

Which is good.

Plus black look better when it is dirty and suspension stuff is always dirty.

I hate my red Calipers on my black Z06. The only damn dirty part happens to be the only damn colored part and also happens to the be the only damn part I can't clean.

Just get a red sway bar and LCAs for that cool look under the car, other wise its pointless to get every sus peice in red since its hard to see and keep clean etc...
