I think it looks good as is, kinda makes it too black to have a black center cap IMO....
It looks good on an all black truck but might look weird with another color...
Heres a pic from another forum so you can see what it looks like

Wow, Ive never seen that...looks real good! I may have to go that route! Is it me, or do the caps have a dull finish to them? If the unpainted part is bright, maybe go with a silver center cap, or paint the caps to match the finish of the wheels, if that makes sense...
What kind of paint was used? Did you do it or take it to a bodyshop? Looks killer!!

What if you masked off the top center and then painted the rest of the center cap?
Trying to picture it my head, but it almost seems left alone... too much silver, painted... too much black...
Maybe some happy medium?

There is two kinds of caps, crome and the matte finish that is on there. I used plasticoat wheel paint. It did take some time to mask it off but I thought it was a good winter job.
