Black would look good, and would match your windows/plastic moldings.

Black.

Although I'm partial to the red/white/blue flavor.

They have faded a bit over the years,
I'll probably go with black next time.

Black, without a doubt. I will also suggest 3 footers instead, 4 foot is just a little much, but thats just me!

I run a single 5' black Wilson silverload on a firestick extended stake mount. Running duals does not help performance unless you can get them 8-9 feet apart.

But the "cool" factor is more important.
