CF hood/Black car

If you were getting a CF hood for your black 8 ( tint, gunmetal rims with polish lip, MS spoiler, clear corners, dropped)....

would you...

1) get a regular black CF hood?

OR

2) get a silver kevlar CF hood?

Would the black on black be too dull? no contrast?

Or would the silver kevlar be too much contrast?

Opinions wanted thanks

Regular black would be better, IMHO. Silver is too much contrast.

The silver might look good with the gun metal rims with the polished lip....and clear turn signals...fender strakes would add to it......it could be a good different look....but...most people are going to tell you to go with the black CF.Its up to you.
