Ive seen a video of a girl that has hers powder coated black, but it was a rolling vid so I didnt get a good look. They looked terrible on Alabaster Silver though.

I'm going to powdercoat mine gunmetal, perhaps at the beginning of august.

Personally I would just get them powdercoated... especially for brand new wheels... cant beat the finish/longevity of a real coating on there
