Default tickford rims

Hi guys I was hoping for some feedback on my rims.
I have 17inch tickford auII rims but they are reasonably scratched up.
I had a thought to get them powdercoated white.
I am a big fan of the white wheels you somtimes see on the v8 supercars.
my xr6 auII is white, dunno if it will suit.
Anyone know how much this might cost to do?
I like the look of the standard color too but would like too see how the white would turn out.
Where would be the best place to take them?
Imho i'm not too fussed on the look of black rims.
To me its too much black (tyres and rims).

Well I'm not sure if this has been done before, so you would be the ginnie-pig.
Post some pics of your car with the rims on it in and some people might photoshop it for you.

are the rims a machined finish or a painted finish? i think from memory they're a painted finsh so u could just get them machined and then paint them white..... its a lot easier to get paint off then powdercoat if ya decide your not too keen on em

You could post some pics up of ur car on the photoshop section of this site and see if someone would colour the rims white to give u an idea of what it might look like....
