Help me decide......PLEASE!

Well, I'm bagging/body dropping my truck and am in the process of doing all the frame work right now. I want to clean up the look of my frame and smooth it out and paint it, but I can't decide on which color to go with. This is NOT my daily driver, but it WILL be driven to shows and every now and then. Here are some pros and cons I have found with each.... 1. Gloss Black - will fade to the background (which I guess is ok because I'm not doing any crazy modifications to the frame) and will show the least dirt.

2.Bright Atlantic Blue (same as exterior color) - Will match the outside of the truck, but is that too much blue since I will be repinting the engine bay and engine block the same blue?

3.Silver - not exactly sure which shade, but it would be lighter over darker. I know silver will go great with the blue, but it will show the dirt the most. I'm going to paint my engine body color (bright atlantic blue) and chrome some pieces on it so I'm not sure if the silver would be too much....like too many colors on the truck (blue, chrome in the engine, white wheels/grill/tail lights, and then a silver frame. Also not sure how the silver and chrome will work together.

Yes, I'm being picky, but this is a one time thing so I don't want to regret it. What do you guys think!???

Silver.
i dont think silver would show dirt as bad as the blue, it matches basicly EEVERYTHING
looks sic with blue, looks bad ass with chrome, and silver w/ black w/blue and while are not too many colors
good luck deciding!

It's your truck but that silver with the blue will look good plus silver is kinda neutral.

I would guess the gloss black because like you said ur not doing any crazy mods to the frame and plus it shows the least dirt and it would look really good black but its just not a fancy color. Also again like you said before it may be to much blue if you did the frame in blue 2 but it may look killer. The silver sounds like it may be too much but its ur truck bro. Didn't know if I helped out alot or not. I hope did though. Later Homie!!!!

I'd go with blue....I dont like silver frames..they look like cheap chrome..reminds me of that shit you get in can that says "CHROME"...grey would be a good choice..maybe even a charcoal grey..My truck will be burnt orange with either an orange frame, or charcoal grey..
