Really like the Atomic Orange color and black wheels. The spoiler not so much, but as long as you like it that's cool. Perhaps get the top and halo painted or wrapped in black to compliment the wheels, and dark glass.

Great reply. I highly recommend smoked side markers to go with the black look and definitely needs to sit a bit lower. Perhaps a Z51 rotor conversion in the works?
