Default Apperance help

I need some help with what direction to take this car. It's my gf's red z28 with tan conv top. For her birthday and following holidays she wants apperance stuff for her car. I was going to start with halo's because her headlight are so hazy its not even funny. The problem is do I go chrome or black halo's. I would normally go black but with the tan top I'm not sure. I would love to go black halos' with smoked turn signal and a berger panel and black outs on the brake lights. I'm not sure because of the the tan top. Anyone have any pics a red camaro with a tan top with halos?

Thanks
Jon

I would go black halos on a red car regardless of the color top.
Berger panel is a good idea, but keep it flat black not glossy.

As far a corners go, I like clear corners, but I have a black car so that's why. Smoke would probably look better on a red car and keep in line with the black halos.
