    I was kinda thinking i wanna try silver or matte black on the lower bumpers but im not sure
    maybe gloss black
    bronze i dont know any ideas here
    exhaust tips will either be black or polished

    silver usually goes well with the green.

    black was my thing for a while, but i dont know if that's your thing.

    I'm going with a version of silver for mine haven't found the right one for the job yet, but Ive got the same paint. green and silver are a good combo, black would make it disappear in dark light, as the paint is kinda dark to begin with.

    i feel like your opinion on colors should be ignored, since you'll always suggest black.

    haha I think black looks good on any color, besides black. And I've seen a dark green monte all blacked out and it was awesome.

    yea my problem is I actually like the color of my car the metallic in kinda sweet but at more then 5 feet away it just looks green I think im going with black

    I might just do the rear in black for now the front is so chipped up it will look like a$$ having a clean black coat and the rest chipped

    I personally like contrast, i would go with a lighter colour than the green, sliver is good. paint silver and paint the pontiac on the rear bumper green to match the green.

    whenever i find myself with some money i'd like to do a green/black kinda theme. the green's really dark and looks great when it's polished. i wish i could remember it new haha.
