Default Powder Coated Stock Wheels

Has anyone powder coated their stock rubicon wheels? Black, or otherwise? If so, how do look? Pics?

Still new to this forum here... But I checked, and there are tons. They do look awesome. I think that they are great looking wheels, and would be very happy with them all blacked out, as opposed to spending $1K+ on a set of 5 for my new jeep. Thanks!

My 16 inch steelies with General Grabbers LT 315/75 R16 tires. The wheels are not powder coated but they are treated with etching primer for the bare metal, 2k HS primer and 3 coats of DuPonts Hot Rod black acrylic urethane 2k paint. Less expensive than powders coating and a lot less brittle. Nice eggshell gloss and great chemical resistance and durability!
