I've had guys tell me to avoid trends too so the car won't become dated but I'm not too sure what that means. Most builds like this are continue to evolve and it is likely something about the appearance will change down the road no matter what happens now.

The basic problem with this is it's art and everyone loves something different. What is too radical to one is boring to another. The more I thought about mine the more I realized yes my color choice is very trendy but painting over stripes in a few years is not a big deal. So IMO if you like the black and gold now follow your gut and if you want something different as your tastes change in the future when then change it.
