Default Need help picking LFA replica wheel color

Hi,

My '09 IS250 AWD is like the one pictured below except for the following mods:

1) Tinted windows
2) Plastidip emblems and front grill
3) Black roof spoiler

So it is pretty much "blacked out". Only the window trim and stock rims are silver.

Requesting help in deciding which color wheels to pick. Planning on getting 19 inch LFA replica rims. I've searched and only saw these replica wheels on either a white, grey, or red IS. Going for a more classy, clean look.

Option 1) Initially leaning towards Hyper Black or Silver to go with the silver accents (window trim, etc.) and removing the plastidip from the emblems. Will keep front griill black, but front emblem back to silver.

Option 2) Keep everything plastidipped and go with Black rims. Have everything blacked out and eventually black out window trim.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or opinions.

Hyper Black is best color. It should not need any more work.
