OPINIONS WANTED: Colour scheme for black C4S

I am considering selling my '02 C4S and have 2 sets of wheels. 1 set, as shown in my avatar picture are the OEM turbo twist wheels in Carerra RS orange and another set are the black Techart Formula 19" 5 spoke wheels. I am also considering having the air inlets on the front and rear bumper cover painted orange, as well as the mirrors and retractable spoiler.

From an aesthetic standpoint for the market, should I keep it all black and clean or do something like the orange accents to give it some flare? I know it all depends on the buyer, but some feedback is good to know in advance before the undertaking of paint.

sell the techarts separately.

as far as the market is concerned, i would keep it as stock as possible. you tend to lose a lot on customizations, and the new buyer will most likely want to make his/her own mods.
