Why don't you use `M-x customize-face' to customise the face you want
to?

That apart, I have a similar setup but all I do is add this hook:

(add-hook 'find-file-hook
          (lambda ()
            (font-lock-add-keywords
             nil '(("\\<\\(FIXME\\):" 1 font-lock-warning-face prepend)))
            (if (vc-working-revision (buffer-file-name))
                (auto-revert-mode t))
            ))

Hope this helps.
