BLiu powder coated his rims a while ago so maybe PM him.

Don't paint, powder-coat!

Yeah...my friend powder coated hios GSR rims black not too long ago. They came out very nice. The shop charged $35 for sand blasting and $35 to actually powder coat (each wheel). But they do make rims in a black opel or gun metal color. Good Luck!
