I would say that silver would look the best.

I don't like below the trim painted. It's ok as a factory two-tone,but generally makes me think of all the vehicles I've seen where that area was painted a different color after patching up rust holes.

Beautiful..this is about the shade mine should be..I also will removed the top trim like yours..but I see so many of these trucks this color that I wanted a little different look..and keep a clean/classy trim.
I think it was on this site that i seen one back awhile ago that was a little darker blue with the bottom dark gray or charcoal that continued around the bottom half of the tailgate. I thought it looked classy and not like it was covering up rust ..Totally clean look..
