Center-cap painting: What would you do?...

Finally bought centercaps for my wheels, and they are anodized blue (I had no choice in this). I am most likely going to REPAINT them and wanted to know your opinions. Below are the pictures of them installed today.

Looking at your homepage, it looks better with out the center caps. But that just me. I think you should paint them black.

It's not just you, I think that too from looking at the pics. But up close when you can see the rusty hub it's a different story.

That is the hub he's referring to. So to answer your question, YES.
