    The wheel paint is gorgeous but that does not go well with the car color, should've kept it as is. But hey, to each their own.

      you need a neutral color usually with orange, but this can work (barely) as an autumn 'ensemble' if you add another brown-rich color

    That color really POPS! I’ll never be a fan of black wheels as I believe wheels should stand out and be a feature of the car, not hidden in the shadows. I always love the difference color combinations you do with your cars! It’s very refreshing and inspiring. Also I think matching the other details to the wheels would really tie it all together

    3. Street based coil-overs.
    4. Video with colab for a geo.
    5. Some carbon bits and a vented bonnet to help with temps by Vulcan Alpha.

    I really like the colour of the wheels... but would look better on a blue car. Personally I would have gone with a bluey silver to contrast with the orange.
    I think, for anyone doing a DIY stripping job, that pre-wash will be one of the most important steps. Any oily residues will stop the stripping solution getting to the paint in a uniform way.

    Going for a kind of CS take on the car is a brilliant idea , possible you could take hints from a M5 cs , eg: Gold accents on the grill and side (good idea) , possibly add carbon to the roof or wrap , yellow drls , and rework the interior to a similar style. Just an opinion on the build, great series . Cheers !
