Default Color Schemes

I am thinking about the paint on the car and have been kicking around some ideas and was wondering what some of you all thought.

The first is to leave it black and white but fix the spots that are fvked up and have a custom black and white leather interior made for it. I kinda like the black and white because it sticks out and people will remember it.

The second is to paint it black cherry pearl with a black and red leather interior.
I like this because it does not look as much like a cop car.

Honestly, the white and black, even if it was new, would still look cheap. I'd go with all black and the red and black interior.
