Default Paint the blades?

ever since i bought my blades 2 of them weren't clean...one of them is scuffed, 4 out of the 6 spokes were curbed by the previous owner so 2 of them weren't that clean, now a third one is scrathed up by a dam rock at the canyons....im thinking about power coating them gunmetal...

I dont think that the any honda oem rims should ever be painted but since yours are in bad shape i would either paint glossy black or broze
