Yeah, maybe i will do 'em white for now! I'll probably end up changing the whole black and white theme anyway-it's already looking a bit imperial stormtrooper-ish :D

The Red , gold, and blue were a clear powder coat, like paint only seethrough to get the silver alloy showing through making them look like anno. closest match has been a glass paint or a tamiya clear blue spray.

Black were flat spray but the Shimmano was silver . the silver were coated with a silver non opaque powder.

Never saw white ones that i remember.
