Question what colour should i.....? help!

hey guys, im really stuck on this one...
I've been stuck at the painting stage of this car for over a mth now.
Its a fabulous kit, and i really like the SAS kit, so i dont want to
ruin it with a bad colour choice. I dont know what to paint it here are
the choices in my mind, help me decide?? I have all these colours
availible to me.

-**i'm leaving the wing and the front lip black, headlight housings are black.

1) Pearl White with Bluish purplish Pearl/Candy clear coat + leave rims as the colour that they are.

2) Grey with Pinkish/Bluish Pearl/candy clear coat + leave rim colour

4) Gold (like top secret) + gun metal colour rims

wat do you guys think?? HELP! :flash:

I'd go with two, but I'd use white instead of grey.

agree with joecwlaw. I think dark colored rims would be suitable for white body.
