Color for M7 Extreme Hood Scoop?

I recently installed my new M7 Extreme Hood Scoop and need some help deciding what color to paint it--white or British Racing Green? So far, it just has the original primer.... I have a few pics in my photo album.

I can see pros and cons to each color choice, and so I remain straddling the fence. Please, folks, help me choose before the straddling kills my groin! Feel free to back up your opinions with pics.

Also, if I decide to go with white, what shade or white would match the white roof?

Thanks!

I vote for BRG, but only if it is a GOOD match with the hood.

If you have some sort of striping, though, white might look good too.

I have an xtreme scoop. Mine is black, but the car is CR/CR.

Motor on!!

I vote BRG body color! The scoop should look like it is part of the car, not something added on.

+1 for the BRG. Get the paint mixed up from NAPA or if you want to spend the money go to a dealer.
