I don't know, I am conflicted about the black and chrome in your ride. Are you blacking out the front lights too?

With the chrome in the wheels and bumper it would almost look weird with the all black badges I think. Dunno, it is a nice ride regardless.

If that is the case and the only chrome left is the wheels I would go black or black with red inlays.

I've never heard of a wheel warping as a result of powder-coating, but I could see where it might be harder to balance with an uneven job.
