Has Anybody Powercoated Their Stock Wheels Black

Has anybody powdercoated their Stock 18's black, because i would really like to see what it would look like before i get it done om my fathers car. I am surprisinghim wiht it, because the wheels need to be refinished anywasys so might as well do them in black. The car is Silver BTW

Yes, my stock wheels should be done at the same time w/Jangy... I miss my car! I hope to have it back tomorrow.
