Default Painted Wheels

Has anyone painted or powder coated their stock C5 wheels dark gray (competition gray or spiral gray)?

If so, do you have any pics?

No pics, but on certain exterior colors, I think that would look great.

I like the look of the cyber gray C6 with competition gray wheels. I am just wondering what my wheels would look like in dark gray, with the spiral gray paint, before having them done. I have seen some that are painted black, but none gray.
