I'm not a big fan to be honest, but I think it looks okay with your color. Like someone suggested, smoked cefiros are a must if you do this.

Don't really like it but whatever makes your ride unique, go for it.

The red/clear contrast is nicer IMO...

I think it would look good with your paint, but i agree you would need some smoked out cefiros to go along with it.
