Does the car need repainted or do you just want to change it? If it doesn't need it, leave it as is, paint jobs are really expensive. There are a lot of better places you could put that money,
Edit: oh nevermind now that I see the pics I'm guessing you want to get rid of the green. In that case go with the grey, you might as well dO something different if you're gonna repaint it.

Maybe would have looked better with a different color rather than the silver. Maybe black would have looked better, who knows. I'd say see if you can mock something up with tape or something about that swoosh, just something to give an idea before you shoot it on there.

Personally I'm a fan of solid color paint jobs, but do whatever you want. If you wanna do two tone, I'd say either do the thick middle section of the hood a different color followed by an "evo mod" of sorts even though you have an LS/LT, or do a top/bottom two tone at the body line going down the side. Actually a white pearl top/black bottom would look pretty cool.
