I know this has been covered, but what do you guys think of body color (blue or silver) on the underside w/ black frame and suspension components? This isn't a daily driver so road grime shouldn't be too much of an issue. Besides I want the engine bay body color anyways and this would help with the fire wall to underside transition (body color to black).

I'd be inclined to use an etch primer like PPG Universel (correct spelling), which is "acid" based & gives excellent adhesion & is able to neutralise any light rust present to some extent, ( I guess you can get it in the US) & follow that with body colour which, as you say would accent the suspension etc nicely.
