Default Painting HX's rims CW???

I have an old set of HX's that are currently flat black. I was thinking or either adding a red lip or just painting them CW or something similar and paint the center caps H red. Any one ever done this? Or have pics?

I'd like to see them painted CW. My HX's are gunmetal with red H centercaps.

I was planning on doing that to my HX's, until I got a set of those gunmetal wheels from Heeltoe. You don't have a picture by chance, do you?
