So for you it's all black or no black, haha. I want to keep this car for a while and I feel like with all of the black/red it doesn't have a clean look to it.

So you think if I want the silver wheels then don't get the black mirrors and spoiler?

Yes. But I'm a little biased. That's the combo I have. Torch Red, 2lt, z51, silver wheels, and red calipers. I can post pics of mine later I'd you'd like.
