I'd make the front splitter black and the rest of the car pink ;-)
Last weekend I saw a completely pink V70 with lightblue wheels (honestly!). I thought it was really cool for clearly not taking it all to seriously.

Eh, I like doing things a little bit differently than most people. Sure does stand out in a crowd and it gets a lot of looks though! I'm gonna respray the bumpers next week, and actually paint the lip proper in VHT Pink. I'll have two lips to change out if I want. Painted the side trim black today.

I like the pink. It shouldn't work but it sort of does! I'm not averse to bit of the odd colour enhancement, hence my Astra wears a purple grille!

Looks better now but I reckon you should get lower profile tyres and lower it to suit!

So, I lost another left front tire. This is the third one that;s gone on the car. All the steelies I had were silver or black, and needless to say, I aint runnin a silver or black steel with white rear wheels, haha. So a quick lick of paint to turn the steels white(they look awful up close, but they pass the ten foot test) leaves me with this: The spacers are still on it and this is how they sit: So what say you, R*R? Get new small tires for the Taurus SHO wheels, or get tires for the 15's and space em out?

Aaaaaaaaaaaand I've got two different front tire sizes, haha.
RF is a 185/65r15, LF is a 195/65r15.
So put me on a Hot Rod oval and I'll be good!

If you're sticking to the pink, you need to go all the way with it. You'd have to do bumper trim, that lower spoiler and possibly the entire roof too. It's such a strong accent that you have to go all out or not at all, you can't pussyfoot around with it.

Alternator went Tuesday. After I replaced that(got it towed to the raceshop, and did all the work there), we replaced the LF tire, this is what it looked like when I took it off. It was a slick all the way across there that bubble was, haha. Oh, and I've got this now too.

Some people are like Slinkies - they serve no useful purpose, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them downstairs.
