Location is South Bend (ND Fighting Irish), Indiana. After I posted, I continued researching and came across Milgard Fiberglass Replacement Windows which come in a "mat black" finish. They have a Lifetime (not limited lifetime) warranty and a transferable 10-year warranty should we sell the house. I found glowing reviews on their products and service so decided to call the 800# to inquire about a dealer in Indiana. Ironically, the women that answered said they do have dealers in Northern Indiana BUT THIS WAS THE LAST DAY THAT THE FACTORY WAS IN PRODUCTION!!! Due to ecconmic conditions they were closing up shop. Figures, I find a good product and they can't stay in business (LOL). Oh well, onward and upward. You stated "inline fiberglass"? Have not heard that term before and will look into that. I really like the idea of a fiberglass product. The closest that I can come to black, however, is the Marvin Infinity in Bronze. Are there any other "good" fiberglass products? What is your experience with the Marvin clad windows. Appreciate your advice and input.

Thank you for the suggestions @ decoenthusiaste, @ Momofthree Ma and @ Beth H. We are on a limited budget, so we won't be able to replace the siding. Do either of you have suggestions on the best way to add window trim? Will we need to have someone remove part of the siding and re-flash the windows to do this Also, do you have any suggestions for what we could do with the steps? We don't have a budget to build a porch, but could make some minor mods to this structure. We will be adding some landscaping this fall.

@multiplemama09 Hi! Sorry, I didn't use any specific paint swatch/color. Hindsight... should've. ;) I was just playing around with color in Photoshop. Here are some color palettes with the hex numbers in case that helps. Could probably match it up with a real paint color. I didn't touch your trim color -- I just altered the siding and door/garage doors. Muted sage green, very muted dark blue - almost an off-black, your cream/beige trim, stained wood door. Slate gray with blue undertone, dark dark navy, your cream/beige trim. OH! I also gave you wider shutters that are to scale for your windows. :)
