I don't think I'd like the dark emblems on the blue. But that's just me...

i know the wheels im getting are a gunmetal color so i was think the wheels plus the dark badges would look good and then maybe add smoked head and tail lights, just wanted to get some opinions before i make the decision though

+1, at least the drivers side rear looks to be backwards. If you bring it to your dealer to get the tires rotated, I bet you or the tech did the cross rotation method instead of just switching them front to back and vice versa.
