What "FrankenLux" canister/hose mashup that you've seen has been the ugliest?

My Grand Marquise/Legacy/Ultralux has a Golden J/Super J hose, and my Super J itself has an Olympia hose. I think both of those look fine with the machines they're on. The colors are close enough to each other. However, I've sometimes seen a 1205 or blue Model L with an Olympia hose, and I can't say I'm too crazy about the blue/brown.
 
That's kind of a moot point for me since I use gray vinyl hoses on all my Electrolux canisters. The strangest looking combination I use is my burnt orange Eureka canister, which came to me with a hose and no other accessories. I use it with a teal 1205 era Electrolux electrified wand that has a pigtail on the upper end, which will connect with the handle. It looks weird but it works with whatever power Electrolux power nozzle I want to pair with it. My PN1 looks the least odd since it matches the wand but it's not my favorite from a performance standpoint.
