Matt black but what about the details?

After working on the car we decided to have a laugh and get rattle cans out and see what the car might look like with different colours.
When the car is rebuilt it will be matt black - budget will be spent on mechanical parts rather than expensive respray & a mate has offered to do the respray but he only does one colour.
The question is, if the car is black, what details and colours do people think look best (with eventually selling the car in the future in mind). Considering having the grills a different colour, stainless steel towing mount, new shiny exhaust. Ideas include:
Red?
Yellow?
Or something else?
Any ideas welcome
cheers

Just gold or shiny black.
The red and yellow were good ideas but look rubbish. I suspect Scandal green (and I love scandal green) would be the same.

Is this just going to be a Plasdip type finish? If so how about doing one of the coloured Matt colours. They look very cool.
