Alright, I think I finally have the route I want to go with my pearl white Z. I've been debating between mixing a couple carbon fiber pieces in or just going the FRP route. I was going to go CF, but the only rims I like that I feel like would compliment the entire look are the WORK VS-XX (which is out of my ballpark) in the charcoal color. So, I've looked at cheaper options and I'm debating what would look best, overall, with my car: Fully polished or matte black?

I've always done my cars "clean" and I don't plan on changing that here. I want to do the Sunline lip kit (painted, while leaving the fang part black). I intend on painting the door handles to match and getting my headlights done to also match PW, but with that little bit of shine gone, do you still think the polished would look better than the black? I'd say black, straight up (because I'm leaning towards the "panda" route) but I'm afraid of that entire donut look. Just one huge, black circle. Although, with a red caliper, maybe that'd break it up nicely? Sorry for the novel. Any input is appreciated.
