Not sure about 2 dark colors together, CETA mod is one thing but to me stripes are another. I think you could pull off Charcoal Metallic which I think would loook great, Silver, White, or possibly Yellow.But to me Black is kind of too dark for NBM. Just my 2 cents.

The closest thing I have found was in this thread I started a while back. It's not of much help (camaro) but might give some help

Default Black on NBM

[QUOTE=SSlow1;9410880]I have a NBM SS with hood scoop painted black and you can barely tell untill you get up close.........I even put a Silver/purple metallic pin stripe around it. If you're looking for eye catching pick another color but if you just want a nice suttle look then go with the black
It looks good but it doesn't stick out Just my 2 cents.....hope it helped
