axle bling!

Hey, I was wondering, what's the best way to give an axle a bit of color? Is it powder coating or would the less expensive rattle can method work just as well and be easier to maintain?

Can you paint the springs? I know...the constant compression and decrompression won't help any coloration you might put with a spring, but would you powder coat those?

Like I said, I want to give my jeep a little more "Hey Look At ME!!" to it...and I thought that working on giving it a little color wouldn't be a bad idea.

How about some of that bass-boat type bright red with metalflake?  And some chrome "truck-nutz" dangling out behind?  And when its parked at Publix, put some mirrors on the ground under it so the sheeple pushing carts by can look down and admire it!

Oh, and dont forget the mandatory fart-can exhaust......

Have the springs chromed, I hear it makes em stronger. 

Nothing says bling like chrome!

No...but a knowledge of how NOT to tear up that pretty investment that's sitting in my driveway might. Just because I wanna give my Jeep a visually appealing perspective DOES NOT mean that I want to turn it into a show car street queen.

I and still a frim believer that the color of earth splattered against the sides of your vehicle can really bring out the color in your paint ^.^
