Looks good. That color is really going to look great.
Another thought is to get a hotcoat kit from Eastwood.
I've used this kit on some truck rims and the durability is amazing. You can even mount the tires from the front and not have to worry about scratching them. Not a bad kit for the money. You do need an old stove to heat the parts up. I just got a free stove someone was pitching on Craigslist.

Hey Clifford! Great job on the OEM rim... the gunmetal color should look nice on your silver car! Only thing is... I don't really care for those Work rims at all LOL 
J/K of course; they look good-are you going to paint them gunmetal too?

I'll have to see how the oem wheels turn out first.
Should be able to come pretty close though with some careful "experimentation".

I personally think these rims are going to look GREAT when I'm done. I can't wait!
