Drive around on them for 6 months. Before you know it they'll be black! Trust me.

You won't be able to see them unless you bend down to look at them. However if you car enters shows and such and you are really particular, get them powdercoated. It should cost less than $100.

Thanks for all replys. I know I won't be able to see it from a normal angle, but I just don't like the color. I think I'll just buy some cheap spray paint then. It will be black anyway!!!

That is exactly what I did with my MaxSpeed's. The paint will chip, but you have to get close to them to see it. It is a cheap/good fix.
