Dear friend, Neither of these colours really suit s the new living room. The -s ending is the only possible correction (the verb agrees in number with neither , which is singular). Often, however, people tend to omit this -s ending and grammatically associate the verb ( suit , in your case) with the plural noun ( colours ).
