advise needed ......

I'm thinkin' of powder coating my Carrera S wheels satin black.
Whatta ya think ??

I've already got the carbon fibre wrap on hood and exaust tips black so I figured this would be the natural progression.

Thanks much. I did put the "Porsche" sticker on the lip. While the wheels were out getting PCed I took the time to repaint my brake calipers. They were black and I wanted something that would contrast the wheels and be correct for a non-S / non-TT car so I decided silver. I also ordered the red "Porsche" stickers from ebay and the seller sent me 10 of them! I figured I see how they would look on the wheel along with on the calipers. I like to look.
