Gold on yellow car is a no-no. Sick wheels, they just dont belong on that car; consider painting them matte black or blue.
ive been thinkin of having them powdercoated i just cant decide what color i wanna do. i mean black is ok but everyone does black, Blue on the other hand i would consider... but what do you think about white?

I love red seats - I hate them in your yellow car.

I love gold Meisters - I hate them on your yellow car.

I like blue lug nuts - I hate them on gold wheels.

Nothing flows very well at all. Did you order all the stuff new/planned or was it collect second hand as it comes along type thing? I see potential, but its just not working.
Thanks for your honesty but relax bro you seem really pissed about it haha. and yes i bought the wheels off the forum here and those are S4Play red seats.

i think everything looks pretty good.

i think black lug nuts would clean it up a bit, too bad the wheels arent a bit lower offset. nice job though.

Im not sure about white. What you wanna do is find a contrasting wheel color that differs from the body color. I'm not saying white/white, black/black, etc. is a bad way to go, but gold on yellow just simply doesn't work that well with an S2K. Consider something like mag blue or suburu blue; that would really set the car off.

Please take this as constructive criticism

In my opinion you just have too much going on.....yellow car, gold wheels, polished lips, blue lugs, amber side markers and headlight diffusers, red interior, carbon rear diffuser, some sort of black front lip spoiler. To me, nothing really ties together.

Here are a few things I would think about doing (if it were my car)

- If you are going to keep the red interior I would think about front and rear "H" emblems in red.

- Amber headlight diffusers absolutely need to go. Clear the headlights and replace the side markers with clear ones. Replace the blinker bulbs with PIAA "Ion Yellow" bulbs. They will blink yellow instead of amber...looks much better on Spa.

- You have a black rear diffuser and a black front lip spoiler. I think black (carbon) side diffusers will help tie those two pieces together.

- Wheels....this is tough. With the polished lip, I almost think you shouldn't have taken off the side "S2000" logo. As for color, maybe color match the centers and leave the polished lip (just a thought to give a more monochrome look). Possibly all matte black (lips and all). I think a dark bronze (like the Mugen MF wheels) would look good on Spa.

- Lug nuts...you have nothing blue on your car so they don't really go with anything. I'm gonna say black lug nuts if you keep the polished lip on your wheels. If you went solid black, maybe red lugs would tie in with the interior and front and rear emblems.

As I said, these are some of the things I might do if it were my car.
