Anyone Tried Painting Their Wheel Weights?

Love my HRE FF04s in satin bronze IPA, but the dealer stuck on these massive, ugly, silver wheel weights. Was thinking about masking the wheel and painting the weights with this:

Anyone else tried this? Any other suggestions?

I used black touch up paint with the brush so my silver ones wouldn't stand out on the stock wheels.

That's a good call on the brush on as opposed to the spray. No masking needed and I can easily try out a few different shades of bronze until I got the right one. Maybe even custom mix a couple bronze shades to get the right look.

Thanks!
