91 Z28 Roll Bar Color~Need advise

Hi everyone,

I just recieved my new roll bar that I have been waiting on to be made for a month! Before I begin I thought it would be good to get some opinions on color?

Car facts: Light Beige interior...Car exterior is bright red! With Dark tinted windows.


What do you think would look the best?

a.) Leave it gloss black?
b.) Paint it bright red with the same paint they painted my car?

Also:
a.) Mount the floor bar over the carpet?
b.) Mount the floor bar under the carpet?

I would like the bar to be as visable as possible...I want people to see it through the front and back, and sides in the summer with the windows down. As I think it is cool looking and gives it that final touch and race look.

Thanks for your opinions? I think I know what I wanna do I just haven't sold myself on it!

Included are a few pics:

I would paint it semi-gloss black but since its alrdy gloss just leave it. I would also like to bolt it in from under the carpet or else you might get some flex in the carpet.
