Default I Need Opinions

I've been looking around to see what kind of cheap mods I can find to do that will look good. The two that I've come up with as of now are painted calipers and Ricks wheel badges. I've narrowed it down to two caliper colors and two badge color combos. I just can't decide cause they all look good IMO.

Gold Calipers, Black on Sebring Badges



Gold Calipers, Red on Sebring Badges



Red Calipers, Black on Sebring Badges



Red Calipers, Red on Sebring Badges



Any opinions and advice would be great

I just watched The Dark Knight yesterday, and IMO, you want bright yellow - not gold - calipers and silver Honda badges.



WAIT!!! Your car has red interior. Use red calipers so the colors match. Just make it a bright red, not a dark one.

I might take the red badges on red calipers off the list. Thats just a little too much red for my tastes.

How about silverstone calipers with a red or black set of S2000 decals all around, and center caps in silverstone with the S the same color as the decal?

My calipers are gloss black with Spa S2000 decals and I love the look.

The selection of ricks badges are skanty on his website. I guess he hasn't produced any more sets. The only two options I have that would look good on the car are the red and black badge colors.

My only hesitation with silver or black calipers is that they are kinda boring. But if I can get those s2000 decals in red then I might do that. I just have to find out how to buy them...
