Powder coat 20" rims?

Anyone powdercoat their 20" rims black? Thinking that would look sweet! If anyone has post a photo or two.
Thanks,
Mark

Some girl that works near me powder coated her wheels black on her red 5th gen v6. I think it looked WAY better silver.

I love the wheels powdercoated! I plan to do this until I buy the right wheels. I plan to focus on performance upgrades first...

It cost me 600 in DC. Make sure they are careful they broke my valve sensors in all 4 tires so they knocked the price down.

It depends on the color you want it took mine less than 24 hours. You are right about the odometer though. I personally parked my car where they were going to work on it and took the key with me.
