What Wheel Color??

So im getting ready to order the powder for my wheels to powdercoat them this weekend and cant decide what color to do. so i figure i might as well see what you guys think im stuck between 3 colors keeping them gold, purple, or bright orange.. also open to other ideas

if i do purple or orange the car will be completely de-badged along with the stickers

the pic in my sig is how it sits now minus the tint i just got this month.

LET THE VOTING BEGIN!

IMO all those colours are going to look hideous and that gold looks sexy.

But thats the beauty of paint, once you do it and realize its ugly you can paint over it
