2015 Starlight Blue Countryman

After having sold my 2008 Mini Cooper S a year ago for a 2013 370z, I'm back with a new Mini Countryman. Gotta say I love it!

I'm looking for a good accent color for my Starlight Blue Countryman S ALL4. I have the white top, mirrors, and bonnet stripes. I picked up a spare set of the brake duct inserts that I thought I'd spray. I'd also like to do the side scuttle inserts. MINI wants way to much for two pieces of plastic.

I was thinking about doing the brake ducts in Chili Red and finding some way to do side scuttle inserts in the same color (think similar but brighter than Park Lane Oak Red) or do the Union Jack inserts.

Alternatively, I've also considered the Orange or Light Blue scuttle inserts with brake ducts to match.

Any suggestions or recommendations?

Orange on blue will stick out, chili red might be more subtle , and the park lank red would be a nice touch.

Thanks ECS!

How about silver, like the ALL4 trim? I've also considered painting white (too light). Other than buying the chrome duct inserts, I figure there isn't a good enough spray product to make them look chrome.

Here's my '15 Countryman S All4. I went with black roof, wheels and mirrors and topped it off with 15% tint. I also have the chrome Style package for the brake ducts and scuttles.
