Can't say I like the blue. But it's your jeep!

For something other than black, I looked at Glidden Paint NCAA colors for ideas on what would match. You can go w/ grey, gold (or darker shade of yellow), Orange (for a Virginia Tech look), White, a cream color. I guess it depends on what you like, and how much you are going to add the secondary color. Looking at the second color, I noticed that they tend to be more subdued than bright. Of course, with you living in Florida, running a JK w/ perceived Alabama, VT, BCU, or USC colors may get you in trouble.
I have a deep cherry red JK, and I am just sticking w/ black for any accents, to keep it simple.

Deep hammered copper color. Not to drastic but has contrast with that red. And then I won't be the only one with copper accent

Gold goes well with a deep red (Garnet and Gold) especially in Florida!!

Go Noles!
