Not for nothing but a brand new F Sport would look nice in any color however the one color that stands out the most has got to be USB ...... IMHO

Obsidian looks great, I almost got it.... but I went with SGM which I don't know how much different it is from the Nebula gray but I think it's close enough. Here's a pic of mine

Black paint is a pain to maintain. Any small scratch, rock chip, imperfection etc, will show up 10 fold compared to lighter colors.

USB is my fav of course but from the two you mentioned I would say Nebula, saw the color in person and it looks pretty nice and probably a lot easier to keep looking nice than obsidian.

I honestly love SGM during the night time but didn't really like the color during the daytime so I went with the Obsidian. Pain to keep it clean and yes it showed all chips and what not but it's so worth it when its clean.
