I'd recommend GB plates on any colour - as it avoids having to stick a GB badge onto the paintwork.

I guess it depends on whether you might be driving abroad. If so then get the GB plates.
I have no plans to drive abroad but think the GB plates look better so always get them.

As the responses prove, it's very much personal preference..

Sprint Blue is the only colour I would put the blue plates on. I don't like adding another colour to the overall look of the car. Similar to people wanting to de-tango their cars...

GB flag with no border and plain lettering looks good imo, freshens the car up.
Money can't buy you love, but it can buy you a well sorted racecar
