But hey, different strokes for different folks.
they look good but i would prefer gunmetal. And the OP wants black housings, black roof and tinted tails, you don't have those black accents in those pics

as i said before, everything is optional. i dont HAVE to have the black roof, black housings, black tail tints, etc. that was just what i had in mind. but like i aid i am open to suggestions onhow to put this machine together. i want something unique. i live in nyc, and almost all g's look the same and they are done very similar. i just want everyones input, if you dont think black housings look good with the gold wheels, what would you prefer? gold wheels with gold housing? black wheels with black housing? stuff like that. i appreciate all your input guys. im doing everything within the next month so i just wanted everyones opinion before i start.

Gold housings never lol, do black housing headlights regardless on what color wheels you choose, I would tint the whole tail lights but not too dark. And gloss black painted roof with whichever color wheel you choose except gold IMO. I know what you're saying on a lot of coupes looking similar in NY I've seen em. Not a lot of them have aftermarket fenders and roof spoilers so that's something to look into. If you do the black roof get a black roof spoiler if you do get one

i have a black roof/grille. those black accents don't clash with gold wheels at all, imo.

search "o hella jdm"

he has a dg with black headlights, black roof, black taillights, and gold wheels.

after rethinking, i might NOT do anything to the headlights, just black grill, and go for maybe dark bronze wheels or hyper black...tryna save some dought, painting alone for the headlights and such is about 400+ >.>

Black doesnt really clash with gold. They actually go well together. As for the headlights being painted, look up the DYI thread. Just buy the paint and your good to go.

im going to attempt to paint my grill when i get off work. if it goes well, it will give me a lil more confidence to paint the headlights myself. im a newbie when it comes to sanding, so ill see how that goes with the grill lol. highly considering these, i think they look better without the black housings:

just make sure its rough to the touch. and make sure you took out any smooth spots when you are putting primer on.

i vote for the wheels to the right.
