I like the black look. White rims look a little too 90's for me....unless it has a big fat lip!!! You should get someone to pinstripe the lip though. You should have taped the tires up but you live and learn. I do like the spoiler but if it's not carbon fiber eventually it will look too hick. Props go out for being brave though.
