    Also don't do the paint to thick or it will fill up the letters just enough for a good coat

    black or silver... it's a luxury car, not a civic. lettering in black, white, or silver depending on which colour you paint the calipers.

    not a real fan of yellow or black

    silver isnt to bad, but I wanted something which would make the wheels pop more, I still like the idea of a light green with black letters

    I think that green would look pretty sick, probably the kind of thing I'd do

    Green could be good, but could stick out like a sore thumb at the same time. The black lettering could really set it off though. i did blue to tie it in with the rest of my car, but I think silver on yours could be a bit dull with the car, wheels and brakes all looking the same. Don't forget that if you use a light colour you're gonna have to clean them pretty much every second day.
