Thinking about painting my stock wheels black...

My G is silver, I dono the name the factory uses but to me it is just silver, the lighter silver. It is Bone stock inside and out. I'm getting the windows tinted 15% or 5% all around. I havent decided which yet. Which do you guys think?

Also, I have the 19's, and was thinking about getting the inside of the spokes painted black, and leaving the face the original color, to accent the windows. Also I will get tail light shades, and head light shades. What do you guys think about the wheels to accent black on the car?

Yup, the oem 19's are made by Rays Engineering they're really nice wheels honestly. If you want some wheels look in the Marketplace section here on g35driver.com

By the way if you need a new shift boot or a custom one hit me up!

In most people's opinions, no. The OP's talking about leaving the face silver and painting the sides of the spokes black, which is gay as ****.
