Default Charcoal Metallic Accent?

I'm thinking about accenting the "Trans Am" side badge on my black WS6. I have 5% tint on back, and 20% on sides. I was thinking either charcoal metallic or silver metallic for the accent color. Which do you think would look the best? Which do you think would give the best overall look? Thanks for your opinions guys, I appreciate it!!!

Either way you can't go wrong. I have silver metallic and it looks great. Accents the car very well. I also like the charcoal metallic, thought about switching a couple of times! So its your call.

I've got silver as well and I love it. I was also debating with the charcoal. You never see anyone with it, so it'd be rare. The thing with charcoal, it'd be more subtle, and I guess I was going for more of a "in-your-face" attitude with my car.

I've got all silver decals + a 30th Anniversary Kit in silver. I debated on Charcoal Metallic and SOM. I say go for the charcoal metallic, not many people have it and I think it would look awesome.

Hey thanks for the opinions guys! They are pretty close in color, so I think they both would look good also. I was thinking to powdercoat my calipers charcoal metallic also. So I guess either silver or charcoal metallic would work. I'm just not sure yet. Anymore opinions would be great! Any pics would be great too! Thanks again!!!
