W126 complete rebuild + paint ...suggestions?

I am doing most of this myself.
The head is off and being machined. It was slightly warped, and the cam was worn. Its also getting the valves seated, new seals, guides & such. Should be as good as new when I get it back next week.
Its also getting ball joints, brakes, rotors, new bumper chrome, timing chain, tensioners, plugs wires, cap, rotor, oil cap, lots of seals, a/c condenser, evaporator, few lines, new leather seat covers, antenna, mb mats, front fenders, and a FULL NEW PAINT job.
I also found rims from a 01 E430 + the Gil racing spacers....so they fit.
Its looking pretty sharp.

I need to decide on color.....Its a TEAL green currently, I am thinking midnight blue, or black. It has the light cream interior, with the dark brown dash, so I am leaning towards the blue.
If I decide on black exterior I will dye the dash black.
Any other suggestions?
Ken
