I want to do the same thing to my G60 rims on my GLi. I did some research and found out that powder coating is much better for rims than painting. It's tougher and since rims are subject to quite a bit of road rash, that would be a good thing. It would suck to have paint chips on your rims.
I did some checking locally (Rochester, NY) and found a shop that would do the powered coating for b/t $120-180, depending on if they had the color in stock or had to special order it. The only other cost is the have them sandblasted b/f powered coating, ~ $12 a rim. A powered coating shop might sandblast too, the one I called didn't.
