Default Painting the car

I need some opinions on a paint scheme. I want to keep my stock electric green but paint the roof, licence plate area, bottom rear bumper indent thingy and hood scoop black. Would the black pop more if I painted the car a bright orange or the stock metallic green?

DO THIS. i think its the sickest electric green ive seen. So just paint the scoop and the front of it :]. or you could do the paint job that 03sixbanger had on his, i think that'd look pretty good on your car

that is basically what i wanna do on the hood. The car has the same side scoops that im gonna be puttin on. Only thing different is im putting the Cobra R front and black Saleens on. Do you think a black roof, sail panels and pillars would look good as well?

Dont worry Im not going to paint the side scoops black, Im keeping the stock electric green w/ black roof, hood scoop, and hood scoop indent. Also I am going to remove the spoiler or else get a Cobra R one, what do you think would look better?

that is also what I was thinking, too ricer. Id have to find a new trunk lid if Im going to take the spoiler off, mine is all wavy from foaming it to stop the rattles.
