What about a charcoal type color with the lip polished if your set on a different color. Personally I like how they look now though

If you want something darker, why not like a full battle ship gray type finish? Almost the same color as Marty has his G painted currently. Then polish the hell out of those lips.

Those lips were never highly polished, that's a start!! You want something darker than silver have the centers p/c'd gun metal (GM) along with your newly polished lips that would look great with your TB sedan....
