Do the contrast of black and white I am almost completely sure that you'll be happy with it. White in black is still a classic combination in my opinion of course. You'll get bored with all the peices being white and all especially for a white car you need to see contrast etc..

I agree with what the guys are saying about contrast on the black. Kinda like the V2 two tone, the contrast is what makes it

I say paint it to be original. Without pics or photoshops it's tough to get a good feel for exactly what you're talking about. But the two-tone thing looks sweet most of the time.

If you are going for the clean look, stick with all white.

If you wlll paint it black, might as well go get the black rims too
