Default Two-Tone paint help

I'm thinking of painting my Z a two-tone color and i need help deciding what color to paint the top. Kinda sick of plain old silver and carbon fiber sucks. Post pics if you got em.

I'm getting blue jline rims in about a month so I was thinking a medium blue up top or that blue-green color that mazda has.

Here are some more quick colors as food for thought:






I think the wheels will make a big difference to. If you have black ones, it doesn't seem to work as well with dark colors (that aren't matching the wheel color). Though it might be interesting to have a really dark color (like the dark purple on the Efijy concept car) and color match the wheels to it. Just my thoughts.
