Default Engine bay color - suggestions?

I bought another CRX shell and I'm wanting to do a OD Green & Black paint scheme. I'm in the military and I've always liked those colors. I don't want to do a camo because I think it will be way too hard to do.
I was gonna do the top portion black and then the bottom green. Split it up say around the hatch, roof, and then hood. Maybe a little portion of the front end black as well.
What color should I do the engine bay? Black or green? The car won't see the street, so its not a show car.
I was thinking about like the pic below. Any positive feedback would be appreciated.

That color reminds me of the camo green plastidip

I'd stick to black, all the hoses and wiring blends in with black so from afar it's cleaner.
