Thinking of wrapping my FRS

I have a white FRS and I want to wrap it neon yellow (3M Neon Fluorescent Wrap Film | Satin Neon Yellow | VCW17076). However, I'm not sure if I should leave my door jambs or wrap them as well? I feel like the color difference will bother me.

Also, any recommendations on what color I should do the rims? I have red rota grids right now.

See my car below Please helpppp

If the door jamb will bother you, will the engine bay, under hood, or trunk not being wrapped also bother you?

I think the reason people don't is just because it's a difficult spot to wrap for as often as the door will be open. Personal preference, I suppose.

With that loud of a color, I'd go with a neutral color wheel. Black or white would be my choice.

This may take me a while, I'm still studying your pictures -

Even then, it may take a private consultation...

My opinion for a a general aesthetic guide line is:

Lighter colored car = darker wheels

Darker colored car = lighter color wheels.

The contrast is what will look classy. Dark colored cars and black wheels rarely look good. Same with light colored cars and really bright wheels. Of course there are exceptions with different paint colors/bodys and different wheels. This is just a very general aesthetic guideline.

I agree that darker wheels would look better on any neon colored car.

Don’t bother with the doors. Will bug you st first but you soon won’t even notice.
Black wheels, mirrors and other highlights.
