IOM SS with painted OEM's?

I tried a search, even a google image search. Does anyone have a picture of an IOM SS with the factory wheels painted black?
Thanks!

That's the plan. I wonder if I can get them done in a day? Don't think I have a way to get them all off at the same time though. One at a time? That could be an undertaking, right there.

My project is underway. I've gone ahead and am in the process of pulling the trigger on the wheels. I have 2 that I'm waiting to dry so I can put them back on. Then I have to do the rears and I'll be good to go. I think it's really going to look awesome.

WOW, they look great. Plastidip spray can did that? I may have to try that.

Plastidip is a really easy cheap way to get a good look. I did it to my 4th gen for a while.. rock hit a wheel when I was driving and it started to peel off so I stripped all of it off.
