dont mean to go off topic, but i was wondering what you guys would recommend on a dark blue metallic truck? im having a hard time deciding between the black (and maybe get harley head lights) and the smoke (chrome like inside with tinted lens) options. my truck is stock which is why im not posting a pic, but it has the oem silver pinstripe and silver "4x4 Triton" decal on the side.

Black wheels, tinted tails, smoked lights....etc only look good on light colored vehicles(ie. white and silver...that's about it), or black vehicles(only because it matches).......and only sometimes, if done right. Too much is too much no matter what colors you're dealing with. With any other dark color, they don't match and blend in.....nothing on the truck breaks up the darkness. You need contrasting colors for it to work.
So dark blue+black= not cleared for flight.
Would your girlfriend/wife wear a dark blue shirt and black pants? No. Go ask her why....I bet she'll tell you because it doesnt match. She'd wear all black, she'd wear all blue, but if it was going to be two different colors one would be light and one would be dark.

Definitely go with the red ones. Here's my theory on colors:
