Orange in absolute direct sunlight and under camera flash, but it's a metallic red in 90% of lighting conditions. Here is the color on a black car:

They don't really hurt torque, but they don't add a lot of power until about 6500 RPM, thats where it adds around 10ish HP.

Custom headlights are blacked out, with color matched shrouds and LED's down the landing strip.
