Default fiesta st colour scheme help

Right basically i currently have a pretty much standard to look at performance blue fiesta st and i want to freshen it up by introducing a bit of colour.
the bits iv decided i want to colour are;

Brake calipers
Badge (gel overlay)
fog light surrounds
and undecided yet but either a Tow strap or paint my tow eye.

if i done the tow strap i wouldnt want it to stick out as far as some peoples do. is there a way of making it shorter?

same with tow eye can it be just simply cut down? im not sure if this would look good or shit may have a look this weekend

now the decision part what colour iv considered

st orange
Yellow
Purple
Pink

I think iv settled on orange as i plan on getting my wheels done anthracite and my plastics satin black after the summer. Any opinions appreciated

I think from your description that if you're not careful you could end up with a garish looking car. Photoshop what you're thinking of before possibly making a total Horlicks of your car

I have a blue 1 too. I'm away to do the plastics gloss black. I have toyed with the badges idea but left them as they are and debadged the back. Wat about an st badge on the grill? Quite cool. if u were to do your calipers, orange is quite cool. But a tow strap? Not for me. Few choice mods instead. Filter, exhaust, lowered. I'll sell u a decat...

already got induction kit soon to have miltek flexi and a remap in coming weeks.
no i dnt think i want to do the fog surrounds a bright colour it was only a thought i think il do the badges black with orange writing and the calipers orange as i think it will look good when it comes to refurbing the wheels anthracite.
i dnt rele like the tow straps it was only a thought as seen some where they look shorter and just for the colour. plastics defo need to go black aswel!
oh and i have a debadged rear and an st badge on bottom right of lower grill as your looking at it

Debadged is cool. A nice clean subtle fiesta with a good stance. They aren't the quickest unless ur ploughing cash into them, so be aswell making them look nice.
