White on white, with pink powdercoated calipers, and pink emblems.

Subtle, but badass.

Yellow is definitely rare. I like the candy apple red/anodized red idea (anodized like ETS' intercoolers) from tha ninja!

18x9.5 +22 eagle f1 all season 265/35/18 with 95% tread left. $2k firm. this is perfect fitment for an x but with 8/9 evos you need a bit of fender rolling.

the yellow is phoenix yellow (think yellow integra type-r). i'm pretty sure the wheels are the same color as the car.

And naturally they'd need the anodized IC to match!

I think the factory wheels coated in a Gunmetal color would look the best, however if you want to put that "girly" touch on it, go with the pink. It is very easy to add multiple tones to a white car. White, pink, grey....White, pink, black....I would add a pink and grey body line accent to the side. Good luck
