Don't think I've seen matte black.
Aren't they gonna look like the hubcaps fell off?

i personally haven't seen any 'matte black' rims for sale anywhere; they'd probably be a real pain to keep clean too

Black Saleen replicas are very nice.

Step 1. Buy rim you like
Step 2. Powder Coat Matte Black.

that's actually a good idea, that way you're not limited to just the black wheels a lot of these companies offer (except i've seen professional powder coating running $200 a wheel, but i'm sure it can be done for cheaper than that).

but, two other good places to get wheels (both in black and non-black) are www.tirerack.com and www.americanmuscle.com. tirerack has just about every name brand wheel that will fit on our cars, and american muscle has a bunch that are more 'mustang exclusive' (i.e. bullitts, saleen style, fr500 style, etc)
