You need to get the center caps - or if they're on are they black ??

And I feel that one very worthwhile mod is the sport black trim around the windows. The shiny stuff is too shiny!

Keep on keepin on!

I think I'd go with black or silver, unless you plan on adding more red (calipers, Rpi scoop, etc.). 2 cents.
