Default Coloring your Stock Rims?

Just wondering how many of you guys have painted/powder coated your stock rims?
I was thinking about getting black on my SW tC. [I know I know black...who doesn't do black?]

I was hoping to see some pictures before I went through with it. Thanks guys!

He's right, there have been many threads where painting/powdercoating the stock wheels has been discussed, and those that have done theirs posted pics.

Here's a link to one thread where the poster photoshopped 4 different variations, so you can get an idea of what's possible and what it might look like.
Enjoy!

Yeah but if you spent a little bit of time and searched a little it would have eliminated the need for this useless thread. I guess being tired of noobs is considered snobby nowadays..... who knew?
