well, it depends if you want a subtle look, or attention getting.
then decide if you want conservative coloring, or alternative.

what i mean is silver or gunmetal would blend in color wise, and still have nice contrast.
the gunmetal would look slightly more subdued. the silver would show much brighter.
a color like dark blue would be subtle contrast wise, yet give it some flavor with color.
personally i would choose something with metallics to match the paint, rather than a solid color. black, to me,would be better in metallic. you could also accessorize, and do carbon fiber printed graphics, and buy the carbon fibre direct replacement GFX i saw on a car at SEMA. kind of a 2-tone thing. but after all, it has to live at your house, and your first instinct is usually your best.

ps. dude, tell them idiots to stop sticking cards in my face. lol.

Well, with CGM, I kinda have my partial take on SIM.

If you are going to do paint, I'd think about the following...

Black (you CAN NOT go wrong here....)
SIM (VERY loud...and really makes the ride stand out)
Midnight silver metallic....to match the wheels. Check this out.

You can tell the difference in the colors. (sorry I don't have rallys in SIM and MSM.)
