Default Need opinions on NEW PAINT!

Painting my car all black in a couple of weeks here and wondering what you guys think about accent colors. I can pretty much do anything i want with the paint, as of right now i'm thinking spraying the whole thing gloss black and that's it. I've been tossing around other ideas as well though, such as colored stripes on the side of the hood. Also, considering painting the calipers black and getting the Trans Am stickers for the fronts. Just kinda looking for some thoughts and ideas to be thrown out by you guys, lets hear what ya got for me...

The car as it sits...(the hood is mystic teal with a black stripe/center, came off my buddies car)

oooooo, i did think about that a while ago. that definitely sounds like something that could turn out sick looking. just some really subtle flat black strips on the side of the cowl part of the hood... hmmmmmmm

black with red stripes or satin/matte stripes would be sick and then paint calipers to match the stripes
