Thanks for cleaning this thread, there one particular person that posts nothing but trash..

Thats neat place for a gauge, there is alot of room in that cubby area.
For that color tC I would recommend a tC debadge and very light smoked taillights. [not super dark]
I'd like a side-shot with the windows tinted. Or they just dont look dark in the photo [second from the bottom].

You can; but the stock rim color looks good with your car color. I assume you mean regular black spray plastidip. I wouldn't take that jump. I don't believe flat, matte black will flow right with your setup. So i'm going to save you alot of time and say don't do it.
If your have a PlastiDip itch then just do your emblems and stuff.

Thanks and honestly I'm not big fan. I'm more into actually painting. So I'm hold off till I get rims

Yea, also in the case you decide to sell your OEM rims you'll be all set. Can't wait to see the new wheels.

I prob won't sell them cuz they will winter tires. New rims aren't for awhile but I'm thinking titanium paint with baby blue lip
