Default Current state and future plans- your thoughts?

Here's how my car stands now:







Vedah Decah Vert Door Kit
Borla True-dual Exhaust
JWT Popcharger Intake
Earthing Grounding kit
Enkei Nto3+m 18x9.5 front 18x10.5 rear + 22 offsets with staggered Nitto's
Carbon Fiber B-pillars
Carbon Fiber mirror accents
Momo Shifter
Carbon fiber like shift boot
Smoked front ambers and rear turn signals
Silver shorty antenna
CF battery and fluid covers
CF engine cover (not installed)

What I'm considering doing is having the car painted a nice, Ferrari yellow with the hood painted black, then powder coating the rims and door handles black and shaving the emblems and antenna (I listen to my Ipod and CD's). I would also get probably a 15-20% tint and purchase Bat's Head & Tail light overlays. What do you all think?
P.S. I know I need a system badly...

I don't agree with painting the hood black....just get cf. But imo i would just leave the whole thing ferrari yellow.

well, I was planning on getting a CF hood, but that's an added cost to which I don't necessarily have the funding- so I figured the best alternate would be the painting of the OEM hood, which will go well with the scheme that I'm trying to do (black rims and handles and etc). Also, all yellow has been done a couple of times already, so I figured this would provide at least some alteration from the prior.

i agree with bobs... you should just paint match the whole car yellow, and then powder coat the rims gunmetal or black... keeps the car looking clean and fresh

nice doors btw

heh, I think that three people have already done yellow, so I think I may go with something different

Looks right now like I'm going to be getting:
Evo-R type S Carbon Fiber spoiler
Evo-R CF door sills
CF strut cover from Suite E GrafX
CF "Z" emblems from Suite E GrafX
CF hood
and a system (2 10's, amp, HU, and screen- setup the way I've been thinking about for a while)
I'll keep ya'll updated- I think I'm going to hold out on the paint job for a while (and I'm thinking of doing a metallic blue)

Will do- hopefully I'll get access to an actual digital camera, otherwise, progressive phone pics will have to suffice.
