Same color as m235i/m240i rims

I need to recolor the mirrors to something like the Audi S5 mirror cover color. I also want the grill to match the color.

I have a set of silver 193s that I would like to darken. I do not want black (as my car is BSM). I had seen pictures fron Europe with a BSM and gunmetal 193s that I really liked. The color you have in the pics looks great.

A few questions:
I assume that they were originally silver, correct?
Are they painted or powder coated that color?
If painted, did you have them professionally finished or was it a DIY?
If professionally done, what was the cost to refinish the four wheels?

Thanks

Yes, originally silver. Powder coated to B55 color code. Professionally done (tire shop scratched a couple wheels). I asked and they said 150ish USD per wheel.
