i put some matte black paint I used to paint my grille on the wheel. It is def. not the same shade but it covers it up somewhat; better then seeing the bare metal.
i thought you couldnt take the face apart from the barrel because the torque specs arent released for the screws when putting back together

Beerme, I was thinking of gloss black as well. or maybe just stripping the matte black paint off and go brushed aluminum.

My color is amethyst graphite. see your from philly too 
I just bought the wheels so I dont want to repaint them. Plus we paid extra for the phantoms so repainting them would kind of defeat the purpose.
As for the torque ratings, I heard Mackin and Volk do not release them. not sure why and not sure how critical it is to get it right. As long as they are super tight I would imagine they are ok (but I wouldnt take chances on wheels)
