On my Black Spesh Roubaix I have the Blue ones. Along with Blue Striped Vittoria Rubino tyres.

What colour you think you are going for?
Also, rather then Hope there is the Token Bling Box. It would work out cheaper but doesn't include the Bottom Bracket.

Base model Roubaix black and white so i like the look of Red (fund limited) but got at a good price with pedals and bottle cage, will upgrade as i go along..

Tassles - you need tassles on the ends of the bars. And those little spokey things....

I have a Secteur that used to look very similar to that. I did the same adding red to it to make it look better. I changed the bar tape to red, saddle to a white one, red banded tryes, I also put new wheels on it just because the existing ones were shoot, these have decals on them etc. I will have to take some pictures as it was a really dull looking bike and now looks much better.

Additional decals are usually ugly, less branding the better IMO.

Don't like coloured headset spacers or dust caps either.

I think, it looks good as it is. A bit of dirt, some well stomped in pedals and a scuff or 2 on the handlebar tape should finish it off nicely.
