Default What you think??

To make the story short i bought these Honda Civic OEM 14 in rims for scrap money. Anyhow 2 of them already had 3 coats of paint on them and I wanted to paint them flat black, and me wanting to do it right i decided to sandblast them. NOw i am confused.. paint them flat black or just put a clear coat over them and leave them as they are ( now i hope u can see on pics ) they are sparkly and have greyish/whitish color

here they are :



Here is how they looked when I picked them up, glossy black:


What u think?? Go black or leave as is???

Be different, paint them silver. You know like the OEM factory look. That look is rare these days.
