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

Breytons. I think they'll look better with the mods you have than the 128's. It looks more sportier. The 128 looks classy.

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..
