Default matte black pro comp 7028

so I've completely blacked out my jeep, right down to the door locks (and the little rivets on the hood around the snorkel). I bought these knowing that the bolt heads were bright stainless steel but Im wondering the best way to black them out. how well does paint stick to the stainless steel?

Powder coat them. You can buy a kit to do small parts in your home oven.. Check out Eastwood dot com

POR15 is awesome stuff but doesn't stick well to new metal or smooth surfaces...

but why coat them when I can get the made from black material? i just don't know if they make nylon hardware that large. If not, maybe those push in rivets to fill the wholes with a black button cap, would give the wheels a much different look but at least they would be all black
