Default Going Orange?

So I saw the Going Green post by Audiom3
https://my350z.com/forum/exterior-an...ing-green.html
and thought that was a pretty good idea and something I was looking at doing. Heres the thing, I have burnt orange seats and super black exterior. So I thinking the same project but with orange LEDs. I wanted to get input from everyone. See if its a good idea or if it'll just look bad. Blue might be my back up idea but nothing really goes well with burnt orange then orange. Any input would be helpful. Thanks all. Really loving this site for ideas.

Just read his post. Pretty cool idea. I would like to do the climate controls / cluster as well. Orange may look good. People may joke about your Z always looking like Halloween.

Anyone have thoughts on where I can find burnt orange paint for covers under the hood, like the battery cover.
