Listen... don't chatchie the mountain bike up too much. Road bikes OK, mountain no.

Other ways to add some color - how about a Hope seat post clamp and in some pretty color and Hope Skewers instead of Bar Tape? No bar tape on MTBikes! Just wouldn't be right plus you really need the rubber grips for support.

My MTBikes are pretty dull I guess. One is Silver and black to which I added blue Hope Seat post clamp and skewers and the other bike is red which I added red seat post clamp and skewers. Enough bling, just enough for MTBing.
