I would go with some fat 50's flames, or just some pin-striping.

Change the Silver to white. Complement the wide white walls.

Asis, it's just fine. But if you want to "add something" to it, loose the stripping and the two tone job. That way whatever you "add to it" will stand out. Also, consider that keeping the two tone scheme and "adding to it" will be very expensive. But whatever you do, you should consider replacing the seat (looks old) and the pipe (burned??!!)
