Fwiw, I love the BSG and think it works best for your ride out of all the options presented. It would be real clean with your chrome trim and polished wheels, but if it were mine..flat black trim, flat black wheel face with BSG lips...

^Thanks tampa.
That color really makes the reds (tails and bbk) pop as well as the black accents. I'm actually going to be painting the chrome window trim gloss black to match my roof (regardless of what color I choose). I'm not touching the rims...at least not right now

Here is another sample of the color scheme I'd be going for if I did BSG

^^^That’s why I didn’t go with a bright or crazy color... I like subtle and subdued (but unique)...

ironically, I contemplated fascia (for like 5 seconds).

I hope you go orange! Wish I had access to those photoshops before I went brown. That would have gone right to the top.

To bad you could find a scale model and paint the shell for reference. It would give you a great reference on the colors.
