Default Hey I got a little paint question....

First off, sorry that is not about my Sc but I figured what better place to get paint opinions than here, I just finished building this little cafe racer, and now Im looking to paint it, I painted the rims bronze and I want to keep them that way, so my question is, what color do you think would look good with the bronze rims?? here is some pics so you have an idea of what it looks like as of now

Thanks guys

If you don't go with red, consider lime green. That would look pretty good with bronze and still give it some wild color.

Lime green, BTW, is a popular color on many sport bikes.
