Sounds like you've made up your mind. I'm also biased, but I think blacked out is the way to go. I had originally spec'd with silver, but when I went to put my order in, I saw one blacked out that was already sold. I immediately changed the order. Because the Carpathian Grey color changes in different lighting, the letters don't appear "lost" to me. But I have seen one with silver and with the diamond cut wheels that looked pretty good also. With that being said, if you're in Southern CA, then I suggest you go with the silver so we don't run into each other. 8)
