I've got to say it looks stock powder coated to me and it's kinda a cross between red and orange but more orange than red.

Not trying to be difficult but I have one that looks orange too. What would've made a red one orange on both sides evenly? Its not sun fade because both sides look the same...maybe some kind of cleaner? Scr8p...any ideas?

a lot of us like the white parts, but gotta like the black with the bright colors too. I was thinking you should do body with a vintage muscle car look with orange and flat black accents.

could be a different powder supplier, not enough coverage, different color base coat, who really knows. it could be something as simple as not cleaning out the gun out right and the colors mixed together.

all i was trying to say is that they didn't make "orange" powdered parts. whether they look kinda orange or not, they still came out of a package that said "flourescent red". :wink:

I think the black and orange looks good! And the Flourescent and white has been done a few times, plus if you look at those rear arms they are dyed, Kent Clausen even knew back in the day it was cooler to dye the stock parts :wink:
