Question Powdercoated 9 spoke cast wheels, anyone?

I have searched for this and can't find but a few pics. Has anyone powdercoated there 9 spoke cast wheels? Either as a re-do, or to do the entire wheel, or to a different color? Pics?

I saw some at the local Dealer that were powdercoated "Red", on a flat black bike, for the old hot rod, rat rod look. With wide white walls. Looked pretty cool.

I have smooth spoked wheels now. Like the look but would like to go tubeless. I am leaning towards PC black 9 spoke also. The machined tabs along the side of the rim may not be to noticeable once the whole wheel is pc black.
