Default What color?

well, i can't stand the blue color of my car.. it's ugly, and the paint is faded and peeling. i know i can paint it myself, but i'm not sure which color to go with. the car is an '88 civic hatch, so i'd like to keep it a stock EF color, and don't want to do a two tone, or anything really crazy. right now, i'm trying to decide between the following.

blade silver metallic

and Flint Black

i will probably do a complete respray interior and exterior with multiple layers of clear, but black always scares me because it'll show everything wrong with the car.
for reference, you can see the oem blueish color here

i was leaning towards the silver myself. there's something about it. it's light enough to not get super hot in the summer, but it's got the nice metallic look to really show off the lines of the car. i also don't drive a crx, i drive the civic of the same era. the pictures were just reference pics for the color.
