Well, I am looking to paint my rear diff cover. I want to paint it red but I am not sure if red and white go together? If I do paint it red I want to add some red to my truck but don't know where. Any body got any opinions?

Rear diff cover, brake drums/calipers, and a bed stripe. And possibly a red "DODGE" across the windshield.

I was thinking that too, but decided red instead. Thanks Raven!
