Finally got my roll bar installed and was wondering what anybody thinks about powder coating it the same as the car color which is light blue. Don't be shy, let me have it if that's a stupid idea.or

I would prefer black....

I think that in your case black would be better, as the shade of blue is not a "jump out at you" color. I have a '72 red car, and I was going to do the same thing only because the color lends itself to it against the black interior. What color is the interior going to be?
The 356 GT cars fitted with roll bars usually had the bars painted the color of the car. Pretty attractive imho
black.... Interior of the car is black and it blends in better.
If your intent is to not have your roll bar stand out and have it blend into the interior, then black would be better...

IMHO, I'm a contrast guy. I like 2-3 colors on a car, properly placed. When people start making things monotone, or start trying to " bling " up a car by making things body color to stand out, it seems.........ahem.......ghetto fab to me....... I personally think something like a rollbar should not stand out, but blend in to the background. I.E. interior in this case
