No black please. Either high polished silver or brushed aluminum.

nope, like i said i havent done it yet, but my car is in the shop right now getting some things done, and an estimate on powdercoating the center piece of my Carlsson 2/5s is going to be figured out. given the price is reasonable, with one of my rims damaged and having to be repaired anyway, something may be done in the near future.
