Default 20 inch nevis wheel question

I had a question just picked up a 2012 jag xfr silver ..well I'll have it next week. I don't hate the nevis wheels but I don't love them either ..But I think it's too much silver .I've seen a couple pairs that were a darker grey color and was wondering if anyone knew if that was a factory option or If someone just painted them ..thanks for any input..Below is a pic of the wheels Im referring to .

Wheels are super easy to get powder coated any color or combination of colors. DO NOT paint the rims!
Prices aren't bad either. I had all 4 done on my 2014 XJR for around $500 which was a good deal but not exceptional.

Problem is it just won't last that's why everybody including the factories went to powder coating. Rims have a tough life and really get beat to death. By the time you prep and paint the rims you won't be that far from the cost of powder coating. Mainly because the number powder coat places has exploded and they are pretty competitive on pricing.
