Default Paint help

So, I'm sooo close to getting the 72 Mach painted. I'm going with Highland Green as a primary color, but I'm not sure what I want to do for the hood and stripe color. I'm thinking black, but looking for other suggestions.

If I am thinkink correctly that that is a dark green then I would go with the argent color for the stripes. Black would look good but the silver would really pop on a dark green.

What I did with my car is left the hood the same color as the rest of the car. But if you want it to look original I wood agree with waffles and go with argent for hood and stripes.

WOW! The number of replies was overwelming. But seriously, thanks for the three that did. I'll let you know what I decided when it's done. OOOOH mystery.

How about the Hertz Gold for the stripes? It would contrast well with the highland green.
