I'm not a fan at all of white rims on a black 86. A white car with black accents is nice, but a black car with white accents... I dunno. And I was never really into the bronze/gold colours, so I may be a little biased. I would think that a black car needs either a classy colour like black or a fun colour like red or blue.

I've got a white FRS (not black like yours, I know) but I've got mine dipped black, and it just looks great as all hell.
