Default opinions wanted: pick my air lid color (pics inside)

ok i cant decide whether to do it in aluminum color or gloss black. engine bay is gloss black as is everything i could find that needed to be painted. abs/ power steering cooler/ and a/c dryer have all been polished and will likely polish the tb. radiator shroud is also going to be gloss black. here is a before pic

and here is a pic of the setup going on it this weekend

Gloss black or gloss black with the flames to match the intake. Do you have a close up shot of the intake by itself?

I vote silver to match the FRC's. But either way, PLEASE polish that hideous teal paint make off of the water pump if you haven't already. That's too much of an eyesore for an otherwise clean looking engine bay.
