Default Help me decide

working on a few last exterior mods for the car and the biggest one is the wheels. I've been trying to decide if I should poweder coat the centers of my wheels charcoal like the blackbirds have or if I should leave them polished. Here's a pic of the car now and a photoshop of the darker wheels

The charcoal on those types of wheels always looks cool. Go for it.
