Thinking a two tone. Want to keep the original color as one of them. Any suggestions?

It's my dd.

Silver.
 
white? black?

You could do a gold bottom like most companies do
 
Or you could do silver.

No, not all silver. Just the lower portions. I believe that was a (rare) factory option. I've seen it, and it looks damn good.

You will hate the black roof here in LA. My LX is black and I am planing to paint my roof white. Just my two cents...
 
If the original photo is of your vehicle in it's current condition you would be a fool to paint it.

On the other hand there was a combination using the red as the upper color with a silver-grey lower half.

Like this? Or, was the line a bit higher?

At the top of the door crease and including the flares (if one intended to forge it correctly).
