I'm kinda confused at the moment..and need some opinions. I'm planning on buying a silver f1 fuel lid kit from Blue Batmobile, along with a silver door well kit, and a silver centerhood kit. Also, am going to buy a C-one hoodscoop, and was wondering, how would it look if I put a silver centerhood kit on and put on a C-one hoodscoop and painted it silver also? Would it all flow well together? I'd match up the silver so it wouldn't be different shades or anything..opinions?

Go with black on all those accents rather than silver. It'll be a stronger contrast and look much better Silver and yellow are both pretty light colors, so I don't think it'll look right.

I don't think i would do silver. Black is cool, but silver clashes with yellow.
Knowing the path and choosing the path are two different things.

It's too similar to stand out. Since yellow is a light color, you need to accent it with something darker (unlike silver).

yeah i think silver will clash with yellow too. I would go with black or maybe dark grey or gunmetal.

actually, why not go silver and black together, if you did it right, it would look cool.
stay away from red, it will look "ricey" to lots of people.

i've decided to go silver..batmobile convinced me..cause all my other stuff is silver..(rims, accents on the rear, [celica fill-in decal, the trunk hatch thing, license plate]) and i have the TYC elegante taillights so it would all work out nice, IMO. ill show pics when its all finished, maybe some of you will end up changin your mind about yellow and silver together!
