   +1 illegal tread FTW!
   
   But orange would look quality providing it was the same shade as the chevrons and mirror caps, or get them all redone in the same colour otherwise different shades of orange could look a bit gash.

    contrasting coloured features such as mirror caps, door handles etc always look shit & cheap
    
    orange roof could look ok, with the wheels you have
    
    +1 on all the tracking comments
    
    and get black mirror caps

    Updated pics look good mate, especially the chop, would be a real sleeper from the side or behind until you got close and saw the roof.

    The raised part of the bonnet in orange would look pretty cool so its two tone and comes down around the grill to highlight it more.

    A bit like this:
    
    
    
    Sorry its not the best quality but thats the limit of my editing skills...paint
    
    Could look good if you had the widemouth and inside of the fog holes sprayed orange too, just depends how far you want to go and how much money your willing to spend.
    
    Is the back of the car colour coded or not? If not orange badges and spoiler would look good too and finish of the theme nicely

    I did think about saying about mesh maybe do your bottom mesh in your bumpers orange, but then youd probably have to do your grille mesh and i think that maybe a bit too much orange lol,,just a thought though mate.
