BLACK!
How many people actually look under your car? Why paint it, no one can see it.

There is european, domestic, and import. The european cars shouldn't have to be stuck with the asian cars.

Soo true, European cars are in a totally different class.

As for the sway bar, red, as it will match an already current color scheme you have.

Truthfully?

WGAF? Paint it whatever you want. If you live your life by the poll, prepare to live a F'd up life.

Black. Unless you want to paint it a different colour that shows all of the dirt and oil and have to continually keep cleaning it.

For normal people: Black.

If you are crazy enough to regularly detail the underbody, then yellow has a nice look:

You, sir, are no mere mortal.

Paint them brown to bring out your delicious paint. Spend a week thinking about what color to paint your swaybars and I can't help but question your sanity.
