Russ... I'm torn on this front. I know you're going for bold, and that's more your style and I can appreciate that. For me, teetering the line between subtle and sinister is mine 
That being said, of the options you have listed (Orange, gold, blue) for the wrap, I'm partial to blue for obvious reasons. Sounds like you wanted to switch from your green theme? I think the gold would also look good though. Black and gold or black and blue. Hmmmm maybe gold would have more pop. I don't care for the Orange, personally.
As for the wheels I can't see the pic. The link shows blank.

I think the wrap color has been decided, got the samples today and the minnow blue carbon fiber looks amazing, whats even better is when the vinyl is stretched a bit it keeps the pattern, no distortion.
also picked up the rims from UPS today, pictures don't do them justice, can't wait to get them on in the spring.

the minnow blue carbon fiber, me and buddy did some crude photoshop work and i think it'll look pretty good.
once tax returns come in, ill be getting the hood and vinyl. along with some suspension stuff, getting new springs, going from a 1.5" drop all around to 1" front and 1.25" in the rear.

As for your drop, sounds like you are going through exactly what I did. I had a 1.5 all around via ford K springs, then switched to steeda comps all around plus adjustable rear perches with the 1, 1.25" you mentioned. I love my setup with my 305 drag radials. Just love it.
As for spring time changes, I just ordered amsoil for spring changes. Does that count? Lol

that would be nice but on the other hand i really like the ease of changing the look of something that is wrapped in vinyl, I can wrap the rims and if it looks cheesy, simply just take it off back to the gun metal look.

Don't like it peel it off
wait time for the hood is 2-3 weeks.
