Oh wow this one is tough haha. They're both great in their own way. I think I have to go with the red/blue combo as I'm generally a fan of color in one's keycaps. However, the red/grey set is pretty sweet in a more serious way.

Need to change the spacebar and |\ key to the same as the letter keys

I'd go for the grey/red. Although personally I'd have the spacebar to be grey as well.

The middle one. I feel like the space bar should always match base keys, it just looks better. Plus, a grey base will match a lot of things if you decide to get more keys later.

I like the spacebar and the "\" key matching the modifiers. I know that others prefer it to match the alpha, but I say to each his own.

I'm with the red/grey as well, but it's going on your desk.

Same here. But why even care what anyone else thinks. We are not the ones who will be using it and looking at it. Just go with whatever you like yourself.
