Mishimoto Catch Can Color Poll

Hey guys,

We are interested in expanding the color options of our popular baffled oil catch can. If you aren’t familiar with this product, check out the link below for some basic information.


http://www.mishimoto.com/compact-baf...an-2-port.html



This catch can is extremely efficient at separating fluid from CCV air and we use it in a variety of direct-fit kits and also offer it as a universal component. Up until this point, this catch can has solely been offered as anodized black only. We want to explore other options for colors and we are reaching out to you guys to see what you would like to see.

Check out the options below and let us know what you’d prefer. Keep in mind these images are 3D renderings, so the final version might differ slightly. If there is an idea you have not on this list, feel free to comment with your suggestion!

Thanks for the help!


1. Anodized Black (Current Finish Offered)


2. Anodized Blue


3. Anodized Red


4. Anodized Silver


5. Anodized Gold


6. Polished


Thanks
-John

Options are always nice to have... I think it is a good idea to offer other color choices for the catch can.

I had my bracket powder coated anodized red... Bracket color would be a nice option to have as well...

What do you think of color combination? Like top - black (/blue/red), main can body - white?
Another way .. do you have some 'brand' colors that are in most of your products? Maybe it's worth to stick to that color so that most of your products can be distinguished by specific paint tone?

Thanks for the input Zeal. The bracket looks slick in red.

Color combinations have also been discussed. Our standard "Brand Colors" are orange and black. We work this into products occasionally and can certainly consider giving that a go with the catch can as well. Perhaps orange lettering on a black catch can.

@Mishimoto, How quick could you get me one of those in gold? And it will be the same gold that matches the sandwich plate and oil cap right?

Thanks for the vote! We still have not decided which (if any) color options we will be expanding to. Once we make a decision I will let you guys know.

Thanks
