how to black H2 wheels?

I wanted to know what is the best way to black out the H2 wheels? Have you guys painted them or power coated them?

Once you black them out what do you do with the hub cabs? can those be blacked out?

Pics would help tremendously.

thanks in advance

Take a look in my photos. I had them powder coated and painted the caps myself.

I just painted mine. Cheep and easy. Powder coat is the other typical option.

I powdercoated mine black, ran the silver painted centercaps for a while, then realized I liked it better with no centercaps, and took them off.

I had mine powder coated gloss black. I was going to paint them myself, but after reading a little about it I realized that painting was a long difficult process if done correctly.
