I am also having the same delima....I have "blacked out" everything else but dont know weather to go with all black, black w/ chrome lip or black with red lip? Also where to look for mercedes aftermarket rims? There are some on ebay but I am weary about them...where or what should we do?

It's a matter of personal preference, but I think it would be sweet! That black on black look, with a trace of red would be very nice...

EXACTLY!
...With some red calipers it would look great. Also what color is the interior? Look at the CLK above. Aside from the wheels looking horrible the whole black and red effect clashes with his interior. If you don't have a black interior you should tint the windows.

That is SO true! I looked at that CLK with the big fat red line on those wheels and BARF!
The thin red line on the Porsche looked gnarly, fast and sweet. But I think without the red calipers it would just be so-so.
So it sounds like I should go buy a black Porsche with red calipers and red-lined wheels. I should really easy to pick up chicks then!
Too bad my wife would complain about the chick thing...
