debadge the cts part and the v emblems have painted black over the colored areas. just an opinion obviously. i had my wheels powder coated flat black as well. man the bad thing is when you wash it and tire shine gets on them and turns them into a gloss its gonna make you rethink it. i know i did but just solved that problem and put flat black tire shine haha

Thanks.
I plan on taking the cts off, just forgot.
I really dont' like the way it looks when you paint over the V's and the Crests. I have seen it and just don't care for it.
As far as the tire black I'lll let you know how that goes. I have had gray rims before/still do and it doesn't make them gloss... TBD (where the hell did you get flat black tire shine?)

the pep boys that was down the street from where i used to live carried it and i think napa does too. i used to have the guys at the dealership detail my car and the stuff they use for tire shine is amazing and well they sprayed over my wheels. at first i was like "damn that looks good", then it was "dammit", then i heard of flat black tire shine. its not as glossy obviously but it does go along with the matte black wheels.
