On the recommendations of several people on the list, I had my TR3 
frame powdercoated a couple of weeks ago.  I was a little skeptical 
at first, but now that I have the finished product in my hands (so to 
speak), I have no regrets.  Looks great!

I chose high-gloss black; the shop I took it to had some reds, blue, 
yellow, gray, and matte black you could choose as well.

Blue, gray and black would contrast with rust pretty well; red 
obviously not, and yellow so-so.

Say - we had a brief e-mail conversation a little while ago about 
shock links.  Did you ever receive yours?
