Wondering if there is a way to do hubs in the same color as the dirt tricks zirconium color? Has anyone done hubs in this color before and it hold up? I think it would look sweet with my new dirt trick sprocket.

It's just PVD TiN (or similar variant) with an interference layer over the top. It can be done on aluminum, but the high temperatures of the process ruin the temper, so it shouldn't be done to anything structural (like hubs). And that's why you rarely ever see it done to aluminum.
