Has anyone painted their stock 17" AMG wheels?

Okay, so my plans for mods to my car is to keep it all in the Mercedes family. I am awaiting to find some local 18" AMG staggered monoblock wheels, but since these are discontinued, my wait for some decent ones to go on sale from someone in South Florida may take a while. So in the meantime...

I am considering painting my entire grill and my stock 17" AMG wheels (except the lip) a graphite or gunmetal color. Has anyone darkened their 17" AMG wheels here? If so, pics please!
