Default Pics of black powder coated 28 spoke wheels?

I am thinking about having my 28 spoke aluminum wheels powder coated black when I take them off to get new tires. I am tired of polishing them and I feel it would work into a new paint scheme it am thinking of. Would love to see some pics of them mounted and any comments yay or nay.

I'd like to cut out every 4th spoke (starting next to the air valve) and then powdercoat wrinkle black..........

Ask, and you shall receive. No pics mounted though... Been considering this option for a while now. Saw a set in person that were powdered matte black on a matte orange road glide, looked pretty slick

Black 28 spokes on ebay

Another black 28 spoke auction with better pics

Thanks for the shortcuts Frankenbagger. That looks like the Dragon in your sig pic, we have a trip planed in June to spend 4 days riding the area.
I called my local powder coat shop. He quoted me $175.00 for both wheels (with the tires, stems and bearing removed) in black with a gloss clear over it.
I keep on leaning towards some kind of candy orange or red to match.

No problem. It is indeed the dragon. Great area, I usually stay in Maggie Valley about an hour away I think. Lots of great riding around that whole area Blue Ridge Parkway, Cherehola Skyway, Moonshiner, and plenty more. Thanks for the tip on the price. That's not too bad, may do it this tire change to hold me over till I go 21" or 23"...
