Looks great Ross, it might be me but the wheels? They would really suit the car either black or a really bright finish to contrast the colour?
If they are just covered in brake dust then please forgive me!

Not a criticism - just input mate.

Like i said, not a great picture.....but no, they are not covered in break dust, and if you look at my profile picture, you can see that they look better! - I like the Titanium finish as they don't stand out too much as being aftermarket wheels! IMHO
