Default Powdercoating rims

Anyone done this? I was thinking of sending mine to be powercoated flat black for my silver IS.

I was looking for a place in colorado that does it--anyone heard of one?

Thanks

Yeah, black is a norm color for wheels now. I was gonna Powder coat my new Works white, but was skeptical, so did only one wheel, and test fitted it. IT LOOKED AMAZING, but far too flashy for me. Haters/ vandals would have loved my car. It screamed look at me, and I try keeping my car as modest looking as possible. I woosed out and got black. It still looks amazing imo, except with no WOW factor.
