Thomas, I had/am thinking of using brass fenders on an orange Rambouillet...it may be quite bit of orange on a bike, but some paint their fenders frame color.
If the brass would age/corrode over time...I would definitely do it! But then again, perhaps it is not best to ask my advice regarding style...my daughters tell me I don't get it right.
