Default 86 GT Factory decal colors?

ok.. i have been thinking about this for awhile... and i cant decide on what color decals to run on my 86 gt since it is getting painted sonic blue. the 3 option are white black and silver. i plan on color matching my rims to the decals..so whatever color decals i get will be the color of the rims i get...... so.... it's up to you guys to choose what color decals i will run. basicly i am gonna be replacing all the factory decals and want to know what color i should do. thanks guys.

the engine bay is getting painted flat black. basicly i just was having some body work done..some small dents fixed and a lil bit of rust repaired and decided i wanted to get it painted while the guy was at it. all i have to do is pay for the paint and clear coat..all labor metal and everything else is getting done for trade for my 2003 ski-doo mxz snowmobile.

If you are painting the engine bay flat black ( I would consider flat charcoal-black), then why not use the '86 factory style GT Hood decal in flat charcoal-black, and repaint all the trim the same flat charcoal color. That would look pretty good, differentiate your car but retain the stock trim look from '86.
