Charge pipe color?

So finally got the money to get an intercooler and charge piping, but idk what color charge piping to get. Black or red? Let me know what you guys think since I'm an 09 white SS. Thanks

Do you got any other plans for either color in the engine bay or rest of the car for that matter?? To be honest the red would most definately POP more than the black, but the black would probably match more parts once added, unless you match other parts with the same color red. So im gonna say red

I'm gonna do red brake calipers. And I figured if I did red I'd paint the valve cover black.
