Colors
The colors for some clubs can consist of a single, one-piece logo, while other clubs may have a three- (or more) piece logo and are often referred to as plaques. They are commonly replicated in a metal such as aluminum or steel and are polished and or chromed and detailed with paint and are displayed in the rear window of the lowrider attached by brackets. This displays the vehicle and owners club affiliation.
The club plaque in any form always remain property of the club itself, not the member, and only members are allowed to wear the clubs colors. A member closely guards his colors. Allowing ones colors to fall into the hands of an outsider is an act of disgrace and may result in loss of membership in a club, or worse.

Famous quotes containing the word colors:
“Few colors last; with their eternal thirst, time and light suck on them, and they bleach the black doctor’s hat until it’s grey like a dunce’s cap.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
“All our Concord waters have two colors at least; one when viewed at a distance, and another, more proper, close at hand.... Walden is blue at one time and green at another, even from the same point of view. Lying between the earth and the heavens, it partakes of the color of both.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“How comes it that you curse, Frere Jean? It’s only, said the monk, in order to embellish my language. They are the colors of Ciceronian rhetoric.”
