Purple Bikes Thread

Anyone have a purple bike? Love to see some pics people...

I have an incoming dark purple tinted carbon frame. Looking for ideas.
Thinking Silver headset, spacers, stem and seatpost
White saddle and bar tape (Handlebra of course)
White cables

Not sure how I'm gonna go with wheels - probably use what I have -
DA WH-7850-CL: 27mm tubeless clinchers though I think the red nipples are gonna clash (hmm, maybe be red cables?)
