Painted/Powder Coat Wheels Black
I'm about to pick up a 2011 E350 sedan with the new 5 spoke AMG wheel package and I was looking to paint or powdercoat the wheels a glossy black. Any pros and cons and any good shop to this at in so. cal?

I was on a black rim kick for a while but also decided pure black would be too much...(for me)
went with gun metal.......
but the powder coating would be kind of cool..
if you do would love to see the pix...
good luck

I had the 18 stock with five spokes, the center hub was BLUE too......
????
I ordered a black car, and it comes with blue center hubs?? LOL!
they DO make black ones.......for 25 each..........
but right now I have the white mandrus center hubs on because of the sweet "M"......
you can see then on my pix if you want to...
the stocks really made it stand out, but my new wheels are great because they're hard to notice....
I don't think black six spokes would be bad.....
do you like these??
