New Paint/Rims, Opinions!

So my body kit isn't looking great and I'm going to need to get it re-painted soon. So I was thinking about re-painting my rims and two-toning my body kit. Black rims with a maroon lip and black and maroon bodykit. Thanks so much to rx78840 for this photoshop mock up!

Top Picture is now, Bottom Picture is what I'm thinking of doing!
Opinions and ideas welcome!

Well the theme of my car is red on black. The interior is the red/black leather, with red LEDs everywhere. Red License plate light, red trunk LEDs, with Red Subs ahah.

Here's another idea, keep the gold rims and go red/black on the body kit

I like how it is now. But I can understand the conflict with red the interior. If I had to pick one thing to do to make it match, it would be the wheels in black. Keep the red in the interior.
