Jesus, it's like we're mirroring each other! I have an SGM and have the replica Wald spoiler (painted), CF roof spoiler, plasti-dipped L logo, and just got the vented hood on order and will be getting my calipers powder coated blue at the next brake change. Also just got the same Weds wheels. Mine came with the standard center caps but I want to get the flat CF caps, and also just orders some blue lug nuts. But I actually like the look of yours with the darker lug nut and blue cap, which ones are they?
I guess the good news is we never need to worry about our identical F's crossing paths since you're on the other side if the pond.
P.S. You may also want to black out the Lexus and IS on the trunk to match the L logo, or just do like I did and remove them all together for a cleaner look.

Maybe it's just we both have very good taste!
Lugs are Kics R40 iConix with anodised blue caps. I got them through Josh at Kamispeed (who also supplied my Wedsport SA67R's). Lugs are $250, blue anodised caps are a further $120.
That's true on never bumping into each other!
Although they would look rather nice if they did! 
I was originally thinking of blacking out the Lexus and IS with plastidip, but I agree removing them would look even better. What are they held on with? Just sticky tape? Don't really want to leave any holes etc. Had to have my trunk re-painted once already to fit the Wald replica spoiler.

Yours do look pretty sick though. As for the Lexus and IS badges, yes they are just on there with double sided tape. I used the dental floss trick to get them off and then some rubbing alcohol to get rid of the sticker residue. And it does leave 2 small holes on the left and 1 on the right, maybe 1-2mm each, but you can easily fill them yourself and paint them with a touchup pen to be completely unnoticeable. There's a guide on here somewhere showing how to do it.
And I agree, we just both have great taste.
