There are some fitment issues that I didn't have time to work out so I took them off but wanted to snap a photo before doing so. Here's another pic...
OK!
Black caps!
My Techart Formula 20" rims came with black bolts on the back and alloy for the front.
The question is how do I get them all to be black?

Ken, if I could find you a set of tires with a yellow stripe on them, would you be interested?
They do make tires that leave yellow colored smoke in drifting competitions, perhaps I should get a set of those?

What part of "I took them off" did you not read in my message? As I said they had some fitment issues and frankly I don't have the time to futz with them right now but wanted to at least see what they looked like on the car. I don't think they are Gross or Naff, but I realize the design will appeal to some and not to others, much like many cosmetic modifications...

Do those fins actually promote flight if you travel fast enough? They look like wings, perhaps they should make ones that are longer, and you should be able to tilt them for steering.

They are the same color - Black - but the center caps are a powder coat I believe which has a bit more of a matte finish to it than the gloss shiny black of the wheels. In person you don't really notice it, but under a camera flash, yeah it shows up...

Hmmm extended wing flaps that function with steering, sort of like a rebel snow speeder... I like the idea!
