Default Opinions on color change?

Ok i have a red 350z 2003 coupe right now.
i got smoked lights all way around coming soon.
After this winter i will be repainting the car.
i know this is kind of a dumb question to ask but which way should i go?

Blue with black wheels (machine lip), black hood, blue rotors, and blue int accents?
Or Black with black wheels (machine lip also), red rotors, with red accents?

i'm just torn between the 2 choices. do i go for like the all black more night rider style, or that sexy blue with black accents from hood and smoked lights.

i've found ton of pics, but god this decision is hard, i just know the red has to go!

Black is a biotch to keep clean ..........trust me on that. You have to stay on top of it ALL the time. All the scratches show up too lol it sucks but at night time its an awesome color to have!

What happens if 5 members say blue
And five say black? Then you are back to where you started. I have confidence in your taste. Pick a color.

so a red enzo isnt real? meh.

whatever you do, stay away from neon green and orange. Maybe a nice, dark green would work.

I say keep the red. You can go with the black rims on the red Z and it will still look good.
