Keep that clear man. It is the signature No Logo look as you were saying. You want people to recognize your bushings as soon as they look at them! I have never seen clear! Keep it the way it is man! |

| Cos a built in washer isn't enough of a signature? Sayin that though, I love the clear bushings. Go well with literally everything I do like the idea of semi transparent colours too. Be sweet to see some mock ups. |

| i think clear is fine. And I got the bushings today!! It took me about 2 hours to put them on because I have ytrucks and the kingpin is too thick, and I lost a bushing and it took half an hour to find. But , it was worth the hassle, the bushings are easily the best I've ever ridden. |

| Semi-transparent colours would be bad ass!
Good thing about clear is that they'll go with any deck. Don't know if I'm just OCD, but I like to have everything matching colours or at least colours that mix well together :p |

| well its the top one and whenever i tighten it the nut just sinks into the hole, and after an hour it will just fall off, they arent split or anything, so i dont realy know whats happening with them |

| Not to sound like a knob but that's pretty self explanatory why there falling off.. IF you've tightened them to the point where there sinking into the hole there way over tightened and this is obviously going to happen as there made of rubber there going to stretch and expand the hole .... and eventually work them selves off
Try not to over tighten your bolt or use the washers provided and this wont happen. ive had my same set of bushings on my setup for months and never seen this..
