Color choice....Help me out i'm stuck LOL

Ok guys so I bought a set of MSR 045's and i'll be picking them up this Sunday (They don't go on till spring though).

Anyway i'm ditching the front lip (I'll make sale/trade thread in just a second and if nobody wants it then I guess the hours of work will just get painted over.

Anyway i'm getting a white lip. Done deal (Doing a secret project with it, and no its not more airbrush for the whole thing again haha)

So the wheels are the black w/ Red lip edition of the wheel.

However I can't decide if I want to keep the lip red and just run with that, or if I want to change the wheel lip to white.

I need some help here any input will be greatly appreciated as always.

if you already have red pipes, and red brakes, do red lip. Saves the money on redoing everything and will be less work.

if you have red calipers, stick with the red lip. I think it will look clean.

QFT

Like I told you via text earlier, I think black/red lip and your other red accents will be just enough of a red "accent" to not seem like some played out black/red scheme that you see so much nowadays.
