What Color for the Dials?

What color should I paint the dials on my "new" Aisin hubs I just won on Ebay. Red is not an option. My 4R is Dark Blue with a few yellow accents under the vehicle (springs, shocks, stabilizer, tow hook).

Dark blue.
Vince painted his a dark blue when he put his on.

That is Todd's that is the closest, and Vinces is the 2nd one.

Kind of hard to gell from the picture though, but the blue looks real good with a dark colored rig.

Yeah I agree, I say go with dark blue, I use Red as my accents for my decals and what not on my Runner, but I wouldn't even leave the hubs red on my rig, I rahter have a more low key look for things like that.

I think blue would look sweet if you could get it close to the color of your truck. I would go with black second I think.

I have some blue paint that is an exact match for the body color. (I got the excess from when my rust got fixed). I just need a detail sprayer now...:rolleyes:

I've got a bunch of 'em sitting in the garage with fresh black paint, lemme know if you want a pic to help you decide. My opinion is go all black, dial and ring.
