Paint job advice please.

OK..I got a '91 RS. Currently, it is charcoal grey which is the factory finish. I want to paint it silver but I was wondering if that would look good on my car since I got some chrome IROC-Z rims.The centers kept falling out of the rims and they were too expensive to keep buying( around $25 a pop ) so what I want to do is paint the centers flat black with no gloss.Would this look ok or would it look kinda tacky.Is there a particular kind of silver paint or kind of brand I nee to look for?ANY advice would be nice before I have this done.THANKS guys.

Ken

Super glue the center inserts in. The factory glue on the back side of the emblems suck. Got any pics of your car?
