Seibon Carbon Fiber Hood & Trunk

Photos to follow later this month.

Currently I have a Red 2013 FR-S with these Work T7R2p wheels: https://i.imgur.com/BAzzs5b.png
18x9.5 +30
18x10 +20
225/40
235/40

I have ordered a Seibon FA Hood and CSL Trunk and I'll get it put together by the end of this month.


The wheels need to be touched up (no rash just time and pealing paint on the spokes) and I am at cross on what I should do with them.

Dip and save money or powder coat?


The main reason for the thread... What rim color matches red and carbon fiber the best? Please feel free to provide photos or discuss what I should do with these rims...

Currently the cars exterior is completely stock so stock taillights etc. Though I assume if I went with gunmetal rims etc I would probably want change it up later to match the darker color.

Honestly I like red body with gold rims. Theres a brentuned sti I always see shooting flames in boston tunnels when I'm out riding the s1000rr on summer nights, and it looks great. Redxgold is that iconic Ferrari look too
