Need opinions

I haev been bead blasting an extra set of accessories and pullies that i have in order powder coat them and swap them on my car. I am powdercoating the accessory brackets silver, but i am not sure what i want to do with the pullies. Here are my choices:
1. Red-to match my car and make it a little brighter under my hood.(favorite choice so far)
2. Silver-to match my accessories and all of the other polished stuff i have under there.
3. Black-more subtle, wont be seen as easy and wont stand out at all.

let me know what you guys think and if you have any pics of similar setups.
thanks

I'm not sure about red, but I kinda like black... its more stock-like and less noticeable (which I prefer). Silver might look neat though.

it is basically between silver and red. black is too plain for me
