Default Stock wheel unique powdercoat

I just came across these on Ebay. Has anyone seen this done to the stock wheel? Is it hard to powdercoat like this? I'm really liking how these came out..

ok.. that makes sense. I might paint/powdercoat that dark gold metallic color, then sand off the lip and leave the spokes. Cool idea..

ive seen it done before (never in person) .. you can tape off the section that you dont want color on whether its PC'd or painted .. it looks like the unpainted section is polished maybe?? .. i would have the wheel polished and then taped off and painted or PC'd

i think that would be a rather expensive project for a stock wheel. PERSONALLY .. i would rather spend the money on an upgraded wheel .. thats just my .02 tho

does the seller have more shots? Those look like the same ones I saw over a year ago on these forums...I know they are the same rims...just curious of theres actual shots on the car or in a different spot other then sitting on the light grey cement ground.

I'd have to see it in person or at least better pics to really judge. Looks good from that small pic though.

I found em on ebay. They look pretty cool but It's hard to say.. The seller doesnt have any pictures with them on the car. They're not for me, just figured i'd share
