Light to medium blue looks good on silver. I remember a Warstiener cup car a while back that was blue on silver.

yeah i've been thinking a light french blue, pastel orange, or maybe even a dark gold would look cool. i've found some sites that sell these graphics in these colors, but the only silver cars i can find have black or orange graphics.

i like the orange wheels, but i think the orange doesn't have enough contrast with the silver to be able to read what the stripe says.

Something that I have always thought looked cool was to go with matte colors against the same gloss finish paint. A bit more subtle.
