Default Black lugz and center cap?

UPDATED PICS - Option-3
I am thinking about these wheel mods... This is a Photochopped version. Black lug nuts, plus a black center cap with the Z logo - I am not feeling the silver carbon fiber AME logo cap. I don't know where to get a Z emblem this size though. I'd like to make the black disc and have a z logo to stick on... Any thoughts?

AS-IS:


with black lugz and z logo


Third option: black lugs and a cf AME logo (versus the silver CF AME cap and the z logo cap)


Another before:


another after: (Don't know how to pshop the emblem on at an angle so I left it out...


Third option: (Dark CF AME cap rather than Silver CF or z logo)

Please! NO Z ON THE CENTERCAPS!

I know everyone goes through a Z envy stage but holy crap that would give you 4 extra Zs....you've got a Z, everyone knows it, don't tag Zs everywhere

As for the lugs, it'll look great in black so you should definitely go for black lugs.

Lemme know what you think... Thanks!

Yeap, the black lugs and the black carbon center looks the best for sure. You may even try red Rays lugs to match the paint and a black carbon center cap.

I'd go for black lugs certainly - but I think the centercap looks fine... Does AME make a black CF centercap? If so, it looks nice and you could go that route but I wouldn't go out of my way to have someone "re-CF" it in black or anything. I think the silver CF is pretty nice looking...
