Assuming you stay with the flat black since its the body color, you have a world of options for the detail color. Anything goes with flat black, and I'm a proponent of black and pink, to me its not a "Feminine" combo as long as the pink selected is a good color.

You could do the inverse of my truck, which would mean light blue wheels and trim on your black truck. I also think that hunter orange (or Hugger Orange if you want to think car terms) on flat black also looks very good. I rock that color combo on some of my kicks and other gear.
Glad to see another guy not afraid of pink.

I just bought a red seat and the interior has a few red accents, so I am kinda committed to some red. If I did pink, it would probably be a light 50s type like below. I think that would allow the red stripe to be most visible.

Ive done Otto's and Lowes in Pearland so far. Still need to hit Kemah too.

What part of Houston are you in?


Why dont you plasti-dip the rims and see how you like it? you can always peel them off.
I am in Cypress, about 10-15 minutes away from Niftee 50ees. There are always over a hundred cars, often quite a bit more. Especially when the weather is nice. The opening and closing nights, have brought over 800 cars or so in the past.
