Why not powdercoating?

As far as the look, it seems good, but how about a picture in direct sunlight...
I just cleaned them quickly with some SimpleGreen, I'm going to bead blast them when I do all four. I would like powdercoated rims, but I'm getting picky on the color. I need to look into what specific colors they can do. I think Deiselbigot had some done in Sacramento at a decent price.

And for the sunlight...
