Just had my bike powdercoated in 'kawasaki' green and am wondering what colour finishing components will go well with it. Picking it up tomorrow 
I'm thinking black will probably be best but im hoping red will go well as my hubs are red and i have a red seatclamp (clutching at straws possibly).

Black components will go with it. Not red. I'll show you-
My Evil, proper black hubs, looks lovely-
My Evil, some borrowed wheels with red hubs. Looks less lovely-
Oh, and my Norco. I have bright green pedals for it, and green lockon clamps but that's as far as I go.
Oh, both have green spoke nipples but that was an error because, being alloy, they just break.
Will agree with what's said above... Black components, not red...
Here's my best mates new bike...
balls, sounds like the hubs may be a problem
white and red
Lovely green bikes.
Go with the red
Decals now white
Red and black!
Doesn`t really show it, but the hubs, pedals, head set and crank spider are red.
Ken - who did you decals please?
A mixture of colours is what you need. Don't forget the purple.
My new arrival.
...completely ruined by this...
And if anyone wants to get in on this green action I have this for sale...
When brant was testing the ragley mmmbop there were some nice pics on here of one in green with a lot of white parts (as well as black), it looked really good. Not sure where to find it now though
EDIT: found it:
Green w/Brown - classy, I loikes that
Green w/Red - oh dear 
Yuck, green plus red is not sexy IMO. Stick with black, white, silver or maybe gold. Possibly Purple if you're going for a 'the joker' look but that would be pretty niche.
Blue goes ok with Kawasaki Green (like on Kawasaki MX and Enduro bikes when they had blue seats) but it doesn't go well with darker greens.
Whereas I think that red is good with "holly leaf" type greens (like holly and berries...)as long as it's only things like skewers and seat clamps and headsets, not stems and seatposts and hubs.
Just a few little red highlights.......
My Heckler.

Mrs BeanZ's bike in the snow 
Mr Beanz - what size frame is that 5?
Brant says its "Sand", but it looks more like green to me, but I am colour blind, so what do I know 
red looks alrigh wih green if you use some whie too. green and whie without the red looks better IMO, think CG.
but I am colour blind
He's right - he definitely is.
