Color Combos - Input?

I had a 2014 Firestorm FR-S, this was an easy color coordination (red & black).
This weekend I purchased a 2016 Oceanic Blue FR-S, I am stumped on what color would look clean and mesh well with it. The interior is still red accented, so I am torn -any input would be appreciated

(I will post pics when I get home)

Pink, neo green, bright purple, orange, other bright colors that will make people when they see it ect.

Honesty black, cusco blue maybe, and maybe white?

I'm ultramarine and was originally going to go for a blue/black combo with black tails, black wheels, black out headlight housings, and black/smoked side markers.

After installing black/smoked tails I liked it for a few months but now I'm kind of regretting the combo. I think a lighter color like gray/machined aluminum will be better for the wheels and will probably swap to red or clear tails.
