I prefer darker colors in the engine bay as you don't notice stains as easily. Also with your color car most of the choices you put up wouldn't really match.
I would match it to your paint if anything...silver is ok but I don't really like it. When I get my Fast I plan on painting it black.

Don't touch it.
The chances of you making it ugly are much greater than the actual manifold being ugly.
If you really wanted to stray away from the black or dark color, you could obviously do the Fast 90 or maybe a BBK.

I voted leave it alone. The only color I like on the aftermarket manifolds is satin black. There are a few members who have had their fast powder coated satin/flat black. Looks clean IMO.

Eventually I plan on getting an FAST 90 painted black.
Other than something standard like black, it's hard to say which color is the best since it depends on the color of the car. You wouldn't paint a manifold orange on anything other than an orange car or it would look ridiculous.
