Need help finding rims....somebody help me please

I have $3,000 dollars to spend on rims and tires. I am looking to have my rims powder coated black and have the lip polished with the bolt pattern so it looks like they are 3 piece because i dont think i can afford 3 piece rims with 3,000. i also do not like the mesh pattern. can anybody think of any rims that fall under this catagory?

You wont have much left to spend if you want to do all the modifications that you mentioned.
