What colour to powdercoat stock Iroc rims

So, like many my rims are being eaten away by corrosion. The clear coats peals off everywhere and it looks very bad. Because I am on a budget and i like the stock look i do not want new rims. Just want a decent refurbishment. Polishing is expensive so thought to just get them powedercoated.

Now i am struggling with what colour to powder coat them. Either go silver of matt bronze.
Anybody with some Photoshop skills can change this picture with both options?

Of those 2 choices, bronze or gold would look better with the gold accents on the car. Silver would not match.

Personally, I would not powder coat the whole rim the same color. The machined face gives the IROC rims their distinct look.
