IMO, silver or red would look great on your car.

I don't have very good photos right now, but I am happy with the metallic silver racing stripes on my 14 convertible.

If you can get red I think that would look cool on black. My Vette is in for repair currently the dealer tried to install the stripes and messed them up on the nose said they had a lot of air bubbles in the job, are now sending it to a graphics company be mindful of that. Just got it and a stripe on the nose had a crease in it, so they are attempting to fix that and a few other issues with the nose.
