Hey guys I'm trying to figure out what my truck would look like if I had my factory wheels powder coated black.
Flat or glossy. Could someone help me out?

I am back and forth with it. I am worried about it looking like a cheap steel wheel.
Black lugs, black wheel.... I was trying to decide. My girl also wants to know what it looks like before I pull the wallet out.

This... Plasti dip is cheap and peals off if and when you want to remove it. FYI it will give you a flat black finish

Thanks guys. I have heard about the plasti dip. I did my badges with it. I was wanting to see what it looks like with a chop. I would rather not do the plasti dip. I'm going to be powder coating and using 4 cans of plasti dip seems like a waste.

I'm also debating on painting the center cap black as well or color matching it to the body. I already have black lug nuts. So it would be solid black if not. I have no chrome on the entire outside of the truck.
