well i am not a fan of chrome and it seems like most of the black SS have the black and red color scheme, and i was thinking id go with the blue, and not i see that i need to go with a darker blue. i will find darker, repaint, and repost the pics.

Did you just use spray paint? Go a little darker and it'd be good!

It's different but has potential. Try painting the upper too and we'll see how it looks. I do think it should be a darker blue as well.

if you decide against it, you can always spray it black again.
