Accents are great when they all match and are done right, but when your accent pieces don't match, the whole thing looks like crap.

I'm glad you kept the wheels though, I think they look good on the black bike! I can take or leave the gold forks, looks good with the black too and since that's what you like then it's a good swap!!

Now that the forks match the paint, rather than mismatched gold shades, it looks 100% better. I'd rock it.

that bike would look even sicker IMO if you had the wheels powdercoated the same blue as the rest of the theme. WHite wheels look good too, but that blue would look sweet.

You really think so? Hmmm...I'd probably go paint instead of powdercoat talk about color matching problems.... How about doing the spoke area in blue and the rim in white?

Any combo of the blue and white down there would look pretty sweet. Would totally bring out the NC scheme too.
