Painted 15" Wheels?

I'm thinking about repainting my stock 15" wheels over the summer. I need some ideas on paint schemes. Ideas or pics of your wheels would be great.

The inserts of my wheels are painted body color. It looks decent.

Fitz, how long did it take you to polish all of them? By the way, those rims look sweet!

It took me around 5 hours a rim total. I could of done alot more polishing, but these are just temporary until I find a set of IROC's. The first two I did all with sandpaper while the second two I did with polishing compounds. The compounds work much better.
