I figure if I turn it black I can cut the stripes out of the black image and put them on the silver so it will keep the shape, reflections, etc.

DntWrryBeHappy21's method will work....but this might save you some time. Depends, really....
--Take the polygonal lasso tool and
do not select the magnetic version. Now you have to keep in mind a simple principal: Small straight lines make very good curves.
--Roughly highlight your stripes using short line segments. (Lots of clicking)
--copy/paste this selection into a new layer
--refine, reshape, generally finish the stripes to your liking.
--select this layer, and go to the hue/saturation option box. Click the check-box labeled "colorize". And choose the color you'd like the stripes to be. OR...in your case, choose the layer, and go into the brightness/contrast box and darken the striped to your liking.
Hope that helped out a little bit.
