Default painting wheels?

hey guys i got a friend that has the stock bullitt wheels that he wants to sell me. I want these wheels but i want the black bullitts. So saving me money and getting the look that i want is what im going for. How much for those who have done it, is it cost to get your wheels professionally painted, or do it yourself and look like it was professionally done. That may be kinda confusing i dont know. So any knowledge on the topic is appreciated thanks.

+1 do that up front and buy a set of deep dishers from MT

MT has BEST wheel prices as well as free shipping and tire mounting/ balencing

YEEHAW FOR MT!

I don't think I would have done that, theres probably going to be a noticeable difference betweent the wheels you guys paint and the wheels MT sells.
