not sure if the fake bolts are plastic or metal. They may have to be removed before powder coating.

I was wondering if I could mask them or not.

I'd imagine or at least hope they're metal

You can pull them out with pliers, just be very careful or you can get replacements.

They're plastic, also note that the cap is plastic and can't be powder coated. Its easier to tape off around the bolts just paint the centers if you want to leave the lip polished.

Ah shit. Center can't be powdercoated, huh? I had a pretty particular color scheme in mind.
