Red, little bit of colour is good. Also matches your plug cap without being over the top.

 

[spents]

red beads ,
or red on the left and black on the right

 

[RcJunkie13]

Go for the red, its not over the top, but still really nice and matches a couple other parts/stickers

 

[Z.hb71]

Looks really good, I'd do the read beads like they said, adds a bit of pop

 

[Milo]

Yep red all day long.

Doug, what I do with the extended rear hubs on my Baja is I have a cable tie round the hex over the pin, that way if the bolt comes undone I don't loose the pin, plus when I want to remove the pin I can slide the cable tie along the hex and back when done.

Nice video, the way that thing tail whips to change direction is violent, I like it.

Belt and braces approach. Mind your nyloc nut and bolt solution worked well, kept you bashing.
