You could do 2 different colors. One for each side. I'm thinking canary yellow on one and a candied maroon on the other.

Where is the best place to get low priced colored lugs?
2007st3
08-22-2011, 10:01 AM
Id say 73 but maybe if you send them a pick they can match it. I'm pretty sure the project mu stuff is powder coated.

i like the dark red idea. will stick out nicely in the snow (assuming you keep the ipikes on)
also ebay is a great source for mutekis, lots of sellers sell them in bulk (not in a package literally loose).
that's where i got my black set after i got my SDRs
