I do want to do my rims gold though , oh my calipers are red there just getting dull already ,the tow hooks i would get to remove the stock front hook because it scraps everywhere , and im not chopping my bumper up , im making it stick out of the driver side lower grill

For gold rims, I would go black or maybe titanium. Red would be overwhelming. It was my understanding that the JDM racer look was to have the tow hook actually come out of the bumper, not underneath.

black lugz because you want to leave it clean. No need to ruin it with a color that is nowhere else on the car, and for gods sake, FORGET the tow hook. That's the equivalent of putting a fire extinguisher on the inside of the car, it's stupid.
