Anything yellow is gay. Especially 3 series bmw's.
So ... Yes. You would be (even more) gay.
Red is where it's at.

Red or black.
Id probably be more tempted to keep them black and low key.

I'd vote black. Yellow is chavvy, red is borderline chavvy and both get dirty.

MY11 rear lights will make a big difference to this!

I'm sure Dom will post soon but the centres caused a lot of headaches lol. The way they look now I think is great - they have an outer part like a clamshell kinda shape, a chrome ring, then an inner circle with the audi rings on them.
Dom had a huge headache trying to figure out what to do as you can't take them apart. Ended up masking off the entire inners (chrome inwards) and spraying the clamshell bit.
It honestly looks really good as it sits - the only other thing possible would have been to try and somehow extract the chrome ring and audi logo, and spray the rest, but it would have been an absolute nightmare - seriously - and I'm not sure it's even possible. We really studied it for some time.
Poor Dom had a hard enough time chosing a colour at 08:30 lol

As Ross said, the Centre caps were a painstaking task, I had to mask up the chrome. The choice was to leave them alone, spray the whole centre cap or do what we have done to them. I chose this option and if it pisses me off, to mask up just the Audi badge and spray again;
A close up too;
The next thing on the agenda was the number plate lights, Ross got me a present after ripping off ze polish.
And LED's;
Finally a close up of the Alloys and brakes, awaiting the S3 stickers;
Comments and criticism welcome as per!

Yep all standard, they seem new too. Old owner seems to have taken some mechanical care with it. Still no receipt for that cambelt though, it's a ticking time bomb at the moment.

Argh, I thought the chrome parts could be popped out, I saw some with the centres same colour as wheels. I've got the same problem I've just had mine done.

That's a single pass with meguiars correction compound on a microfibre correction pad, using a g220 DA. Dom probably has a post-polish shot.
