    The dark charcoal gray with the red pin stripping would look good. :)

    The bee hive is a cool looking light and you should be able to find LED's to go in it. Looking forward to seeing the paint job.

    Brookings sits on the very south end of the coast at the very bottom of Oregon just before you enter Calif. It's a fishing town and pretty cool looking area. The area also has the only tree that grows in the world except for Israel that is called the Myrtlewood tree. I know it has nothing to do with your bikes parts but thought I would throw in a little history of the area. Really beautiful wood. Here is a pic of a bowl made from the wood.
