Alright so I just received my LoD rear bumper and am looking for some d-shackles for the d-rings but I want them to be a specific color. I've seen people on here with different colors and I'm looking for a set of red ones. Thanks guys!

Wow, prick. Although I really do not feel like I should justify myself here I am not a mall crawler. I didn't know that adding looks to functional parts would be grounds for an e-beat down.

Well, now you do.
I'd just use a good brand of rattle can paint on it. That way when the paint chips off from using them you can just reapply cheaply. I'm still debating on painting mine or not. Even more yellow on my jeep might be a bit much... what color are you thinking?

Paint them as the others sugested above. I'm planning to do it to. Since the paint will chip off becouse of use, will be esasy and cheap retouch it. i was thinking to paint'em black with yellow pin

Haha, I was just thinking of getting some red ones considering everything on my Jeep is black and I'd like some type of contrast. Geez its like anything done for looks on a Jeep automatically makes you a mall crawler regardless of how functional it is  , oh well. Thanks, I think I'll just shoot 'em with some rattle can then.

It was meant as a joke, sorry. No need for name calling. Didn't think I'd touch a nerve and get anyone upset. No "beat down" intended here.
Since we both have LOD, I think this may work for you:

Crosby's shackles and hooks are painted red from the factory. They are American made and are better shackles than any of the foreign crap. Campbell also makes high quality gear but their stuff is blue.
