Default maroon camaro with stripes?

i have a 2000 camaro that is factory maroon. it needs a paint job soon, and i planned on repainting it the same color to save money. i wondered if anyone thinks maybe some stripes would go with this color. and if so, what color of stripes would u suggest? i was thinking either black or maybe another shade of red/maroon. but idk, its just an idea.
