Ok...

Current Black Plus



or Green with metallic flecks



or Blue with metallic flecks




I have a friend who does a lot of motorcycle tank painting...the green would be like this:




So....

I think you should go with the color that makes you happiest.

to me, the "candy" paint makes me think of carnival rides from my childhood.  Although, I do think that being on mesh and somewhat set back would help to subdue that. Maybe add some rim tape like the Empulse has in whatever color you choose.

Hmmm, I like to customize things so I have to say that I would go with green. I think it would add a nice accent.

Strip all the trim pieces off and go nakid!    ;D

Seriously though, I like the all-black look.  The problem with using metal flake candy paint is that it needs direct sunlight to really shine.  It doesn't work so well in recess in shadow on the side of something, it just gets mottled.  Except at sundown/sunrise...
