Tough!
But I would lean towards the Breyton, since you're going for a "race look" with black roof and spoilers.
I really like the 128's and they are sporty, but I think the matte grey Breyton would fit the overall look better.

I like the 128 but since you have AW with black roof and CF roof spoiler, Breyton Race GTS Matte Grey would be a great complement

Id say the GTS.. hot wheels especially in that color. Only thing with breytons are they seem to bend pretttty easily.. bent mine twice in 1.5 years and I have seperate snow wheels for the winter! The pot holes weren't even that big either.. They are justt expensive enough to pay $150 to repair, but I feel terrible paying..
