GLS 550
Powder coat 21” AMG wheels gloss black?
I just purchased a 2019 GLS 550 in Selenite Grey and recently replaced the grill with a gloss black Panamericana grill and love the new look. Am now considering doing a chrome delete on the window trim, roof rails and rear badging in flat black. And going gloss black on the front lower chrome trim on the bottom of the bumper.

to complete the look I am considering having my stock AMG 21” rims powder coated in gloss black. Has anyone here done this and if so do you have pics?

Love the car, love the grill, and yes, go down the "night" route.
I don't have any pics but you'll find plenty here if you search hard.
Gloss black wheels ftw

I think the multi-spoke AMG wheels would look good with that body color.
