Paint ideas

ANyone got ideas one what to paint on my car.. its red with the silver lining at the bottom plus the hood is black with a 2 inch cowl. I want to leave it red and the hood black so i was wondering if i should put pin stripes on the cowl or paint the spoiler black to match the hood idk any ideas would be cool.. I'll get pictures soon hopefully

i think you should paint the cowl red and leave the rest alone, and why do you have IROC and old T/A 14's on front/back, is that achop or the way it is?

I had all 4 iroc rims and bought 4 new tires but only the back tires fit the front one rub right now but i need new spring anyway so i'm going to replace the new springs and then mount the other 2 tires. I have the IROC rims on because i think they look sweet as hell. I only need 2 more center caps
