In my opinion:
Colour coded trim doesn't look as good, as I reckon the black trim plastics break up the colour nicely.
I have colour coded my rear boot lock though, a nice tidy addition to the back end.
White Tigra rims could work well though I'm more of a black wheel man

personally Mark I love it. wasnt sure how the fully colour coded bumpers would look but now I think it looks spot on.
I think if you had gloss grey arches and bumper tops there would be too many colours going on. Blue body, white wheels, grey arches if you see what I mean
Its your car at the end of the day so completely up to you though buddy

Painted plastics look spot on. Those wheels in white on that car wouldn't go imo.

I didnt vote as it looks well in your photoshop, but if it was my car id do the plastics in gloss black and then stick some black/antharacite wheels on. Along with the dark headlights

Really dont like arden blue colour coded for some reason, and if your going for white wheels why have dark lights? Go for either one or the other imo, maybe crystal lights. I wouldnt be happy with the car like that if it was mine, but seems as you obviously like the look of it then I suppose you need to do what you like or you wont be happy with it regardless of anyone else likes it
