my bike looks very blue in these photos, probably becuase of the camera phone, but it is a dark flat purple. You said you are going to be painting a haro frame right? which one? my last bike I had was a 2005 Haro Nyquist Pro. I replaced quite a bit as I went, but I never changed the frame. People hated on it big time, but that frame held up to everything I ever did to it. Wasnt a huge fan of the ISIS bottom bracket though. lol probably spent around 1500$ on it total and sold it for 26$ last week. Post some pics when you finish it.
