Blackened Stock Premium Pkg Rims
Has anyone had the dealer or a 3rd party blacken their rims? The rims we have are like the ones attached to this post. My wife loves the Brabus black rims, however it is just not cost effective to drop 9k on them when we most likely will upgrade to a GL in a couple years (more kids).
If anyone else has gotten these types of rims blackened - would you be so kind to post a picture? I thought of doing this for my wife's birthday - but would love to see a picture for taking the plunge.
Thanks in advance.

are they powder coated???
I like this, and I just happen to have a near new set in my basement that I would be interested in turning these black.
edit: what seems to be the best look: matte, semi-gloss, gloss???
