Default Blacked Out Stock Rims (Photoshop?)

I am looking at getting my rims powder coated or Painted. Or just getting some of the grooves of the rims painted black to match the car. This is my car and I was wondering if anyone could photoshop the same rims onto my black monte or anyother monte so that I could see how it looks before I get it done for good? I have a common 2004 Black Monte Carlo SS This is a pic of a yellow monte with fully blacked out rims That are the exact same as mine if it helps idk.

i think it looks pretty good, and keep in mind if it wasnt photoshopped you could have red calipers show through them.

I painted my stock rims black. it looked pretty good when finished. not powder coat quality but a whole lot cheaper. and yes teh red calipers do show through quite well

Just my humble opinion, but all blacked out rims with blackwall tires (no lettering) only looks good on a black car. "murdered out" look.

But that's just my taste. Congrats on doing a good job though. The rims by them selves look good black.
