Default Accent color for black WS6?

I was wanting to get just the side "Trans Am" accent for my black WS6. My first choice i'm thinking about is charcoal metallic. My second choice I was thinking silver metallic. I want to keep it subtle and blend well. I'm planning on getting a set of TT2s and painting them charcoal metallic, like the blackbird wheels. Either way, let me know your opinions between these two, and feel free to suggest other colors. Thanks a lot guys!!!

If you're going with Charcoal metallic wheels, then you may as well have the door emblems match them - I think that would be cool! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Actually I think the dark grey accents would look sweet. I looked for some a while back but couldnt find any, also I will probably change wheels again and doubt dark grey accents will look good with another color of rims.

I agree with Raven 99. Either that or go with Pewter instead of silver metallic.
