Thanks Aaron, I think I'm going to stick with the carbon levers. Both the Serotta and Gazelle have carbon levers, and honestly I kind of like them in the way they don't get as hot / cold as alloy in the summer / winter months. I've got a set of the Tektro R200a levers that are soon to be put back into service that I recall freezing my finger tips on when it gets cold.

Added a few other paint options to the second post, and the build dimensions to the first post.
