    I'm looking for feedback on the color of my trim. I painted a piece Wimbledon White, I think it looks good. What do you guys think? Should I continue painting the rest of the trim this color?

    I have a hard time judging colors on a computer, but that looks pretty sharp to me.

    Nope. Try to use the original colors. Rails were some kind of beige, I believe.
    Also, your '302' emblem needs to be about 4-5" further forward.

    It looks good to me from what I can see in the photos. I generally go with the rule that, if you like it go with it. It is after all your car. I do agree with Krash on the emblem placement. It looks like it is way to close to the wheel well. Proportionally speaking it should be somewhere in the middle between the wheel well trim and the front trim like in the brochure photos.
