Pics of Painted Stock Rims Please!

[Slip_Angle]

Searched for pictures of painted stock rims and could only find 2. (Bronze & gloss black) Does anyone have pictures they can post please. I'm looking of for either gunmetal or flat black...or anything else that would look good on a Silver EP.

Thanks!

How did you paint your rims? Do you have any problems with the paint chipping off from rocks and such?

I cleaned my wheels really well and scuffed them up and used spray paint. I just put them on the car for the first time yesterday. I got a couple scratches on the inside from the shop that mounted the tires, but other than that they look good. Here's a pic:

I think because these rims have a flat face with no lip, they will tend to chip easier... I might have them powdercoated next winter.
