I don't really care for them in flat black, I prefer gunmetal w/ a nice shiny finish. *blang blang*

i think it varies depending on the color of the car. I have a white integra and considered painting my stock GSR rims gunmetal and then black.

Even Photoshopped both colors on my car to try it out. I ended up buying black rota slipstreams. The gray didnt look all that great with my white exterior.

I had a set of 2000 Si wheels powdercoated, and it made a curb mark dissapear. Usually they'll Glass bead blast them before they coat them... that usually gets rid of most surface imperfections unless they're incredibly deep.
