I'd at least try and continue the stripes on the trunk lid too. The wheels black sounds like a good idea. I know white wheels are a pain in the arse to clean anyway

Painting rims is an art. To make it look good and last is tough.

Yeah. I'm going to paint some rims myself soon (maybe). If I knew some powdercoating places I'd do it that way.

Stripes sound good. Painted wheels? Hmmmm.... I like the white on white look. Is black
a Must Do color for the stripe? How about a light grey or metalic silver? Just a thought.

I agree. Don't contrast too much.
