I think body color would look cool or You can't go wrong with black, but Blue might look cheesey.

I would say black looks good on anything, but if you want to be different go the body color.

gun metal would look nice, or dark grey metallic.

That's the same dilemma I'm in now. I'm gonna do the whistler mod on mine but I'm torn between Semi-Gloss Black, Gun Metal, or matching the NBM body color.
