Bright Red Spohn SFCs

Does anyone have pictures of the Spohn SFCs when they are powdercoated bright red? I'm going to pick some up, and am trying to decide between red and black.

Check out this current thread, Spohn SFC installation questions.

Also Schultzy's GTA had a fairly recent post with excellent picutres of his install. Just use the SEARCH function to it.

If you car is black, red, or blue, I think that the Bright Red powdercoat is the color to get.

I can't see the point in getting them powdercoated when you've just got to grind it off at the weld spots anyway.

The SFCs I got from Spohn were round pipes. I see pics of square tubes. What gives? Did they (Spohn)change SFCs from round to square tubing?

Spohn made a design change in 2002 to the tube type. I did have mine Powdercoated (red) and did have to grind for the welds. However: it did save the time to paint the paint the SFC tube surfaces. Just touched up the welded areas with paint.
