+1 couldn't have been put better.

OP, IMO I really like the OEM color and design. If you go gun metal, how much of a difference would it really make from the OEM color? It's just a shade darker. Also, why not use the money towards an internal upgrade like the MD Plenum Spacer?

After a few experiences I've had in the past. I would just search online for a brand new motordyne plenum spacer and purchase it. You won't have to worry about the condition and any of the hardware missing etc. They range from about $300-600 depending on the kind you get. But it's proven performance.

The OP's wheel looks good, but like all the redone wheels, the color is flat. I mean that in a dimensional sense, not in the gloss/satin/matte sense. The OEM Hyper Silver has a certain depth to it's color that painting or powdercoating just can't match. My Coupe 18's are a little rough, but I'd rather have them rough with the OEM paint than clean with a flatter paint.

PM tony@riversideinfiniti or rick@riversideinfiniti (both members here) and they'll get you a good price.

Huh? $600? I got my MD 5/16ths Copper ISO, which is the most expensive 5/16 option, for $240 shipped a little over a year ago. Even a full price, 1/2" Copper ISO spacer is only $345 from MD's website, and I'm sure you can get it cheaper elsewhere. But $600 is way off the mark.
