Powder coating stock AMG rims black

I'm looking to powder coat my AMG rims black but un sure of what color to go with. The car shop that is doing this for me said they have three options: gloss black, matte black, or satin black. Does anyone know what color black AMG is using on their vehicles? On the MBusa website I like how many of the AMG cars look with black AMG rims but I am un sure of their exact color since they just list "Black". Also I will powder coat my brake calipers red. Anyone else do this?

The wheels on this car are not MB, also I have heard that the diamond cut wheels you have (including myself) don't lend themselves to effective powder coating so I would be interested how you get on if you go ahead !!

Yes I know they are not MB they are Brabus. They are quite similar to the AMG 18 inch 5 spoke wheels though, and they are only one inch bigger at 19 inches. What I ment by same look was the "blacked out look". Also didn't know that about our rims, but I have seen some people on here have these rims painted
