I think I would stick with the black/orange. You could change all the orange to silver.

IMO black/silver is the best combo(on trans ams) but on LS1 camaros the black/orange or red looks the best

Black, Orange and Silver will work great together.

Three colors for design is good. My SS, as you know is Red, and my accent colors are Silver and Black.

Keep it subtle and clean.

One of the biggest styling mistakes I see people make is to be locked into a two color theme. It get's monotonous very quickly and can really cheapen the look of a vehicle.

A totally overdone black & orange color combo, if limited to those colors, could make a jack-o-lantern out of your car. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Silver will be a great third color to add.

Id agree with mark on this one as well...

My car was done in all red and silver and it got to a point were it was just too boring. I decided to lose the bright silver in favor of a gun metal silver and tossed in some blue..

I know blue and red seem like they might clash but it worked for superman didnt it...lol
