Nice looking combination of colors.
The blacked out lights with the red really POPS.

Great looking color combo!

I'd paint the rotor hats black like mine pictured below. Will look great with your black wheels and will help them from collecting brake dust. The primer will eventually show surface rust too.

Very nice! Thanks for the idea. How'd you do that? Need to remove each rotor first?

To make the car IMHO the sharpest that it can be:

1) Get a transparent (black) top and do the body part behind the top (hoop) black also; that will make the car look smaller and sharper. SO ADD MORE BLACK!!!.

2) Do the hats in black too but at that point I think that chrome wheels will make the whole car "pop" and replace the black side grill badges with the chrome ones. If not I think you will have way to much black, the chrome wheels and chrome side grill pieces will really make the whole car "outstanding". Oh, and the black headlights on red are way and the car gets two .
