Default Blue, Black or Silver?

Hey guys, I need your opinions! I have a pro-touring style 71 Firebird that is going see paint in about three weeks. My problem is that I am jumping from black to silver to blue. I know I am driving my painter nuts because I am changing my mind every other week!! I am going to give all of the chrome the brushed look. What do you all think??

what wheels are you going to use and what shade of blue you are talking. Do you like to wash your cars? If not, I would say black is out!

What exact colors are you considering?

What exact colors are you considering? And what statement are you looking to make with the car?

I have chrome Foose Nitrous 5 20x10 on the back and 18x8.5 up front. The shade of blue is close to the shade of Blue on Prodigy's Jagarang 69 Firebird.
I have a Hotchkis TVS kit that will lower the car a bit.

I am going for a Pro-touring style with a little old school and modern mixed. The best of both worlds. Basicaly I want to take the ugly out of it.
