Looks good.
When i bought my FD the owner had painted the rims flat black with a rattle can. Looked good for for a little while, but then started to chip or flake off...especially when you get new tires mounted. You can expect it to look good for a year or so, but i wound up getting mine powder coated with 40% gloss. Looks much better, IMO, and it was MUCH cheaper than new wheels.
Cheers!
