    I'd either go with blue to match the lateral links or black to make it look stock. Either way, do get some flexible stuff as DuRWooD suggested.

      What you have seen so far has been all powder coated and powder coating is very flexible all by itself. I don't think yellow will go good with the scheme. Blue might work though, and i'm doing my calipers in a candy orange so I was thinking maybe do the sways to match the calipers?

        I was going to ask if it was powder coating, but I already posted my comment and was too lazy to edit it, hahaha. If you're doing the calipers orange then doing the sway bar the same color would work. Blue and orange or opposite eachother on the color wheel, so they're good contrasting colors.... I'm not gay, hahaha.

          Candy orange, matching the calipers would be cool indeed. Otherwise just some shade of gray or black, since your car has the appearance of all new OEM underneath.

              ya I agree, orange would rock pretty hard with blue!

                Orange calipers? I feel bright coloured calipers are tacky. I only like black calipers personally.

                Blue calipers, swaybar, and links would be cool.

                      I'm riding on one bad strut at the moment. Hopefully I can park it in the garage soon and not have to worry about it until next summer though.

                              Wow! Those will stand out, for sure. Looks real nice, though. I can't wait to see this thing completed and back on the road. Makes me want to get mine started so bad, but I don't have what I need yet... money

                                Wow. This is awesome. I may have to get a better job and ship my BG to your shop for some work!
