Custom build colours (tasteless not tarty)

I'm building a glow in the dark 456 Summer Season. So far not got much, wheels, brakes etc.
What could bars, seat, grips, stem etc would look most tasteless & offensive?
Lets be honest a glow in the dark, bright green bike isn't going to be tasteful so I think I should go for a properly offensive colour scheme.

I say go with pink or purple - Raceface do some pinky bars /stems / cranks (Atlas I think)
Also get some ODI Troy lee yellow grips - would look mint!Kinesis xc 130:

I was thinking orange, but pink could look pretty cool. I really like the sound of the glow in the dark pedals.Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350

Will post pics. This may take a couple months as I haven't got forks yet (will get Domains or Sektors, cant decide).
So far got frame (looking awesome in glow in the dark green), Juicy 7 brakes with 203 rotors, Intense mag 30 DH wheels, Sunn Racing 9 spd cassette, FSA Gravity DH low rise 720 bars and looking for a suitable single ring crank set.
It will hopefully be a bit of a DH fun bike, though I will do some DH races at local club level.Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350 -
On one might still be selling glow in the dark grips too.0

Orange-you can easily get orange bars, grips(superstar components), saddle(ragley or wiggle charge spoon) and probably an orange seatpost. If your feeling rich, you could also get orange x0 stuff0

I went to an Orange demo day today, whetever I do will look better than the brown Orange P7 with pink wheel rims! Rode really nicely but looked horrible!Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350
