I think the top and bottom covers and screen frame being the same color looks best (to me). it makes it obvious that the paintjob was professionally done.

For the keys either the same color (with painted insets for the engraved parts) or a complimentary color, but I think they look best when they're not white.

I like what you did with the keys on the black one - even that outlining is a bit of overkill, just paiting the inserts a different color would be good.

because of the white bits, the all-black one is the only one I think I'd ever consider paying actual money for. I think for the other ones I'd be afraid people would look at it and say "cool, but how come you didn't get the white parts painted"?

I think I would prefer Titanium or carbon (color) vs brigher colors. Something a bit darker than the keyboard color and non-gloss.
