I agree... I like the exposed look of them without the center-caps.
BUT... if he has a vision for them - I won't stop him.

I vote for no powdercoating.

What are the specific wheel name of those rims?

dont worry. I decided not to do them black. Im going to have them refinished in the original silver-aluminum color.
Thanks for the comments guys.
