My suggestion would be black or something like a gold/bronze.

I found a place that has anthracite stripes that match my wheels, now I need to come up with a color for the accent stripes, this is a tough color to find colors that fit. Guy suggested orange for the trim stripes, i don't know, I guess if I chose a color to paint my calipers, the accent stripe would be good to match with them

I'm trying to decide between orange, yellow, or red. Red will be the safe color. I'm just kind of getting bored with everything blacked out and I want something on the car that will pop.

Ya that's why I don't like black wheels, you can't see them....I just can't decide on a color that will look good on Guard...I don't think red is it...was going to go with Bronze wheels, but thought it would look too blinged out, not what I'm looking for

I've seen one with red and it looked really clean but it did have polished wheels.

Only reason I would want a trim stripe is because I don't know how well the Anthracite will actually show up on this color without one....I guess maybe finding a color that goes with the anthracite, that looks good with the wheels, would be a better way to go, then if the calipers looked good, the stripe would too

Guard plus red wheels reflect too Christmas treeish

While it's not a stripe I had my decals for the last rally done in matte dark grey and they actually popped really in the sun when you can see the green and faded into the color in the shadows which was pretty cool.

ya the red does look ok in red, but you can't really see the green of the car with the red, and in the dark or shade it would look like red on silver or black, and I'm not sure red stripes would look good running over the car
