I selected my color combo based on I like red and my wife likes silver. When I bought my pile of parts, the guy had already started down the path of it being silver. I personally don't care for silver as the main color as it would've drowned out all the chrome and stainless items. He had the Comp's powder coated the red and I didn't want to pay the $$$ to have them redone so I matched as close as possible to the wheel color. I also didn't want a custom mixed color because of the possibilty of paint repair in the future. What I ended up with is 1997 Toyota Supra Performance Red and 2001 Mercedes silver stripes. The color combo works great and I constantly get comments about the rich looking red and how it pulls out the rounded beauty of the curves of the body.
