Any ideas($$$) about RIM paint job?

Naturally my rims have paint chipped off, I am thinking about black rims. How much would that cost? My car is stock with original 17 inch AMG rims.

Thank you

i'm sure the price is different per region, but i think your looing at around $75-$150 per rim to have it professinally done. who knows, try to work out a deal at $50 per rim. mines was around $100 each because of all the rivets.

Seriously? You painted them urself? Can you send detailed pics? Since my car is black, I am sure It'll look good with black rims and grill.
