I didn't go crazy I used wheel paint from auto zone, and whatever blue lugs they had. I did it with two cans of primer and 3 cans of graphite and one can of clear. I did it in about 3 1/2hours.

The wheels look good but get some different lug nuts. It appears that the ones you have are acorn style seats and you need a flat seat with the factory wheels. Take a look at your factory lug nuts for reference

They look great! I was thinking the same thing about the black color. I have a white RS and think this color would look better.
