Icon5 black it out?

ok ok so idk if i wanna do this or not. If thinkin about painting all the bumper and grille black, and the top of my hood, and then get black wheels sorta the oposite of what i hve now. Instead of the black bead and aluminum finish i may get the aluminum bead and black finish... what are ya'lls thought??? Main reason is that my wheels look like **** and im too lazy to polish them lol heres a pic of her.
