Accent color suggestions?
Currently my car is mostly black and silver. Black wheels, roof, grill, CF emblems. The only touch of color is the red scoops and I am thinking of painting them a different color. Any suggestions that might look good? Should I put other touches of the same color other places on the car (lugnuts, or...)?
So far I have debated the following colors... 1. Silver 2. Blue (something deep looking) 3. Orange (dark burnt orange) Below are pictures of how it looks today. Let me know your thoughts or suggestions. Thanks! |

I would say Blue. Matches the silver and black nicely

The more I think about it, the more I am leaning towards blue. I think it would compliment the silver, black and LED AE's nicely. Here is what I am thinking...
- Stud conversion - Open blue anodized lugs (pictured below) - Scoops painted to match lugs - Hubs painted black - Calipers painted black |

I'd say silver, more sublte and contrast well with black. if you are going to add a contrast of color(blue/orange), you have to make sure most of your parts are that color. and having to many colors with a contrast will make your car off and wacky.
