Default Wheel color change please

I'm looking for someone to change the color of my wheels if they have any spare time. I've owned these wheels for a few years and the chrome can be a little too bright for my taste. So I was thinking that I should try photoshopping a few color ideas to see which route I would like to go. So this is what I'm hoping to see...

1. Matte black face, keep polished lip
2. Gloss black face, keep polished
3. Matte black face, gloss black lip
4. Matte black face, bronze lip.

If anyone else has any cool or creative ideas, I'm open to them. I just want something more subtle this year. The pictures posted below are a few years old as I have different bumpers and tail lights, but this should give me a good idea on what to expect.

I'm not sure what the etiquette is for these photoshop forums, but I'd be willing to give a "gift" for graphic design services. I want to get these wheels powdercoated before March.

I was half way done with your request yesterday and my freakin computer crashed and i lost the work.

I'll pop it back out as soon as I can if someone doesn't beat me to it first.

AsAkite, you're the man dude. I've got a tough decision ahead. I think it's either gloss black face with polished lip, or the entire wheel black. Thanks for your help again. What's your email address?

Just so you know AsAkite, I moved forward from one of your photoshop designs. I'll have better side pics soon, but wanted to send you a public thank you for assisting with my decision. It's people like you that make this forum great.
