Thanks for the comments guys. Much appreciated!
I'm definitely going to stick with silver, I don't think the black compliments the LM's that well (at least that's the case with the photoshop pic). As of now, I have a list of mods that I've planned, just not enough time! Plus, winter is here, so I'll have to garage her until spring... ugh
But I do agree with those that have said red calipers are a must and a bit more agressive/lower stance would be nice..
Dharn55 - the front lip is from Cargraphic. Check it out. www.cargraphic.de If you want to wait, I will be selling mine (with the silver grill inserts also made by Cargraphic). I am getting the RUF or GT2 to replace...

Jon,
Very Nice!! I love the cup car/track look that the LMs give the Carrera!
On the color, my vote is for black center pieces. I like that look. It makes the car looks really bad *** for me. Look at this video, it has a dark car with black rims, and it really look sick coming down highway!!!

By the way, did you get a chance to weigh them? I'm curious how lightweight they are with or without the tires. Thanks!

Yeah, the black rims/polished lip look is pretty agressive... I used to have that on my old wheels, so trying silver is a nice change.
Mike, 19" LMs front and rear are 24 and 25lbs, respectively. With tires they were around the mid-50 range I would assume...
