To keep the contrast I wouldn't go black. White would look good, but unless it's powdercoated it would be impossible to keep clean. So I'd go for matte bronze.

I'd hit it with this, and then a matting agent on top.

I like 'em as is. Car's looking good.

If you must, do something that will contrast with the dark. The teal is a good in your face idea.

One colour bronze / gold would be beauty. Getting rid of the polished lip.
