Default Valve stem and lug nut color combo..opinions?

Bout to send my bbs lms to get powder coated, just wondering what y'all thought of colored lug nuts and valve stems? The color scheme for the rims is gonna be glass black with the red accent line around the lip, going on BRR Z28. I was thinking about picking up a set of the rays aluminum valve stems and some red lug nuts.
Here's a link to the valve stems:

Too rice or should I just go with black valve stems?

I had some red lugs with my black zo6 rims... the rims were also PCd. only problem was when I took them off.. the PC on the lugs and rims fused together and not even my 150lbs impact would take them off... its like they got glued on.. if you do this type of setup.. clean off the PC from the lugs and rims where they make contact... if you ask me, its a nice touch... Mine looked good..

the rivets killed those rims for me.... I got some TT2s now... much nicer and with chrome lugs... thinking of getting the black anodized "bullet" style though... theyre pretty cool looking..
