Default Color matching stock wheels to the body?

I did a search and didnt find what I was looking for, Ive got an 09 graphite gray H3, I wanted to color match the stock 16 inch wheels to match the body, has anybody done this color match, can somebody do a photoshop so I can see what it would look like, Im not sure how to post a pic of my truck.
Thanks

I think it would look cool if you had a body matched grille and now chrome on the body...

Otherwise Id just get them blacked out instead

Well, If I paint the wheels to match, Im doing the grill at the same time.
Just dont know if I should go with black on the wheels and grill, or graphite gray on both?

you should go with black rims and paint the hub cap graphite, then for the grill, paint the top part graphite that's closet to the hood then about half way down the grill have it fade into black like the bumper
