Black SS/SC with Black Powder Coated Wheels

I am looking for pics of Black SS/SC's with the stock rims powder coated black preferably lowered but if not still post your pic. I myself have a black ss/sc and I am going to get my wheels powder coated black. However I am not sure if I should leave the center cap silver or get that powder coated black as well making the whole wheel black. So pics That could show me what both look like would be awesome.

Also post you opinion on whether I should go with an all black wheel or leave the center cap silver with a black car.

Thanks!

I took all the emblems off my car and painted the bow tie on the front black. Idk its so hard to pick haha. So far I havnt seen anyone with a black car and all black wheels. so I guess ill pick when i see a pic of that haha. Did you get them powder coated professionally or paint them yourself?

Powder coated.. I thought the flat black made it look mean

but it does chip eventually, so I just bought me some 18' Axis Decades

I found this one.. it's not the right car.. but the closest I've seen on this forum to alllll black

Thanks for the pic I love it. Still a tough decision on what to do with the center caps. Whats the official color of your rims and did you do them yourself or get them powder coated?
