Thanks for the replies everyone. The more I think about it the color matched lip on he rims would be iffy, I can always he them done later of I get tired of all black. The nismo would be blue, I forgot to mention that.

As far as the calipers go, I'm 50/50 and haven't decided the color yet.

The door handles were super easy, I was surprised. I looked up the DIY to take them off, cleaned and prepped (no primer) and just numerous very thin coats, followed by thin coats of satin finished clear.

My front bumper looks like it got murdered because of the previous owners curb, and some poor taping in a spot. I decided to order a matte black Stillen lip to cover up the scraps and scratches (just got my driveway shaved so no more curbs) also thinking I'll plastic dip the wheels and get a feeler for the look and see if it flows, think its a good idea?

Sorry for the wall of text and rambling on and on. Also I can't quote in my phone but all the answers should all be there.
