There are some nice candy red powder coats you can get there days. I just did one of my oranges as it was looking a bit tatty in a deep dark green. I was thinking about a light pastel yellow. I think you would struggle to get a nice titanium look. Though you can get clear coats so if you felt like taking the time to clean the frame up you could try just a tinted one of them to get the ti look.

Chainguide did nothing at all infact i think it aided in the chain constantly coming off. Its now been replaced with a truvativ Team Boxguide Chain Device which seems to be working pretty well.
