I would keep the silver for the ground effects. The roof rails should be either plain black or body color (blue). Going with black will make the rails fit in with the black trim. Going blue with the body color would allow the rails to blend in with the rest of the body more.

Well another variable is my mirrors they may get painted blue to match the car so that may change the overall look

If you're re-doing the mirrors body color, then I would probably put the rails body color also. Just my opinion, but there won't be enough black left on the car to really make black roof rails look part of the car. They would look too much like add on pieces in my opinion. With black out of the picture, your options would be body color (blue) or silver to match the ground effects. Personally, I would make your roof rails body color. I think they would fit in better blue. You're going to have enough design stuff going on the rest of the car. I think silver roof rails might be too much. Too busy, as some people say. And trust me, as the owner of a decalled-out Dale Jr edition, I know all about busy.
