Looking for opinions or ideas on paint/powder color for roll bar

[TX SS]

I recently purchased a Wild Horses San Felipe bar (basic hoop and down tubes setup) and lap/shoulder seat belts for my Bronco. Truck is top on, on road, good weather only cruiser. I installed everything and broke it all back down and now am ready for paint or powder. Initially I was thinking of black, then brown, and now am thinking about a white that matches interior. My truck is sequoia brown with parchment interior. I want the bar to blend as much as possible when looking through the back side windows. I'm thinking a white might accomplish this. Any thoughts or ideas on what color would look best? White, black, brown or something else? Picture of truck below.

White, with top on the idea is to make the bar as invisible as possible. IMO. everything is white ..

Or, go with body color, either way would be fine I would think. I would not interject a third color, like black, into that mix. I went with my off color.

I used this on the new cage I recently installed in my 71. http://www.rustoleum.com/en/product-catalog/consumer-brands/specialty/appliance-epoxy-spray
It's a little light shade thatn the Wimbledon White but is pretty close. It's a hard epoxy paint designed for kitchen appliances that see alot of abuse. I'm happy with how it turned out.

I would go with the body color on that jewel, just for a little contrast with the top since it's neutral. You would still be able to tie in to the main color

Body color for me, and wow nice stock EB. What's the emblem above the Bronco Script
on the front fender, dealer plate?

I go rattle can black so it's easy to match if you add stuff to it later.

I agree!
Easy touch up is a big factor. Flat black barely shows where you touched it up.
Having said that I like that near chrome almost satin silver look that powder coaters do a lot of now. Kind of looks like that near chrome ceramic coating they put on headers.

Thanks for the feedback and compliments. Surprised so many suggestions for body color. I really thought white would be the consensus. I am going to think about it a few more days. If I do brown, what about a hammered finish like this? I painted some cabinets with this stuff a few years back and they turned our really nice. I looked around online and it seems quite a few people use this type of paint on roll bars/cages with good results. Easy to apply with brush and easy to touch up.

And frenchy, yes the emblem is a dealer plate.

To close the loop on this I went with oyster white powder coat that matches the dash and door panels. Had to pick something to match to and I liked this best after looking at available powder colors versus the truck's colors.

Awesome Bronco! I like the Brown and you don't see it very often!

Judging from the color choices in your house, I think you know what to do!
