I like the first picture where the hood and flares/skirts are black and the rest of the car is a color. I really dislike the top/bottom two tone in the other pictures. To me, it looks like those cars where guys put muscle car-style wheels, a cowl induction hood, and metal flake paint on a 240Z and try to make it look like a Camaro. That's a paint job for a classic pickup imo. I don't think it fits the car at all. 

 

 

That said, it's just my opinion. We all have different tastes. It's your car and you're the one that's going to see it every day. If you like the look and it makes you happy, then that's what matters.

Your car is already going to be pretty bold with the picture frame hood and the fully polished engine bay, so maybe it would be good to lean into that and go bold everywhere with the two tone. It might be on theme.
