I have the LE wheels for my FB. When the time comes they are getting painted black with polished lip. It'll go very well with my white and black themed FB. Tinted windows, white car, black side moulding, white decals. lol Getting the wheels to add a bit more black would be nice, and I have the targa band so the polish would semi-decently match the metal in the band.

If you look at Marcello's (OnlyOnThurs) you will see pretty much what mine looks like without the targa band. He has different wheels on it now, though.

Eatmyclutch is an unknown quantity at this point
If you do anything, DO NOT PAINT BLACK! Black wheels look ghetto.

edit: gold/bronze wheels ftw^^^ They look good.

Lots of elbow grease! It took about 10 hours and quite a bit of materials to do (oven cleaner, pressure washer, sandpaper, mothers, paint, masking tape). I don't mess around!
