Thanks for all your learned opinions... I'm pleased my car is generating such friendly discussion
Just a few rejoinders...
I can't go darker with the tint and stay legal in Melbourne - most of the time it looks much darker than in these pics, so that's cool.
You're right Tamas, it's the alu fuel cap. One possibility is to paint the inner bit the body colour (yellow) and leave the alu ring - that's been done on the two Mazda Australia turbo mules (red and black body colours), and looks great IMHO.
Also I'd never put gold or bronze wheels on my car, just as I'd never wear a gold necklace or wristband. I happen to like the black+polished rims a lot. Still, there's no accounting for taste!
I'll get around to the calipers, promise...
