Color Scheme Dillema

Ok, so those of you who have met my bike are aware that she needs a little work. I have forks on it (they came wif the bike) that are red off an 07 or 08. They need new fork seals which will run me more than a couple hundred bucks. I started following the red anodized color scheme because the forks stand out... problem is my rims are gold and I saw that I can get new gold color forks on ebay for a couple hundred...

The question is go gold, or stay red? (I will need to paint my rims and still pay for new fork seals)

hey mamba!!
tha gold you have on your bike looks sweet!! i like it. but yeah those red forks gatta go! haha id say get um gold or black. mostly black bc gold forks look kinda orange.
gold pegs & bar ends would look pretty rad too haha.
