Red and gold are a great combo, particularly for cars like Imprezas/WRX.
For some reason, it doesn't have the same punch on our cars though - although the concave rims do seem to work better with it.

Word of advice if you plastidip: Lay down more layers of black (I'd go 5-6 layers) before you hit it with gold metalizer or vintage gold dip.
I did my PF-01 with gold metalizer, and it had a slight green tinge to it under some lighting conditions, but because I didn't hit it with enough black (the gold metalizer is very thin - almost like glossifier), it was much harder to remove than it should have been (I spent a few hours with a bottle of Goo Gone trying to get it all off).

Here are some pics of the dipped rims (clean and dirty - the dip attracts dust and sand)

if you removed the gold side skirts and gold rear diffuser it would be less flashy. Or paint them black. Either or, looks pretty good i guess
