I had mine painted gloss black by a body shop...they used high temp paint. I initially went to a powdercoater but they told me that painting them would be the better method. They've held up pretty well over 5000 miles so far, but I'm glad I did black (I really wanted the wheel color) b/c I have to touch up a spot here or there after they've somehow gotten chipped up.

I've done all the chrome on my car gloss and have been happy, but matte would be a nice contrast too. The reason I did gloss was so that any 'touch-ups' I had to do would hide a little better. It seems no one has perfected painting chrome yet, so touch ups here and there are a necessary evil. Good luck and I can't wait to see your results.
