   Gold and red may make it look a tad christmasy imo.
   
   Personally i'd get it colour coded, leave some standard mk2 rears on or some custom m3 styles. Standard golf mirror caps and get some nice silver alloys.
   
   S alloys are getting slightly boring now. How about some 206 nimrods or some dished brocks or something.

   Gold is a difficult colour to choose colours to suit with it, thats why i think we see so many smoked themes as its easy and will always look good, how about doing a photoshop of different colours etc on your car and what what best suits

   kk ill ask on photoshop page because im wank with photoshop lol, i know its so hard to find a nice colour to go with gold! only colour really is black, i was thinking red though but im not sure, its abit extreme... could spray s alloys red, red tow eye and mirror caps but i think probs would look tacky, too different lol

   Go and check out ebay. Keep your eye's open on places like edition38.com and places like that. You should be able to find a bargain
