If the lips get chewed up, which color?
I'm thinking the lighter yellow. The darker yellow is too big of a contrast IMO. Orange is too violent and the white is a definite no go.

If you like the orange and olive, have at it man. I just wouldn't go overboard with the orange. A thin pinstripe maybe 1/8inch... with a basic orange it could come out really strong really fast. I'l take a piece of cardboard and paint it the green and add the orange to it and feel it out for a bit first.
Otherwise, Olive looks great!
Monkey, blame that guy ^
(continuing the trend)
Color is different on cardboard (go figure). But the lighting is different too. The wheel is in direct sunlight and the cardboard is inside under florescent light. Figure you'd get the idea on a close approximation though (it's good enough for the girls zx2ricer dates).

John, I want these wheels.
Edit. I found a set on CL. If the guy gets back to me tomo i'll be buying set #4 and painting them flat olive and doing the military thing. For shits and giggles.

Looks like someones been through and done some post editing, HRW
I think they look fine W/O any yellow, and the yellow would make my crap work stand out. Not something I want to do, lol.
I think if I'd raise the car another 50 inches or so that HUGE fender gap wouldn't even be noticeable.
