How to change the CM wheels to white Alloy

I just ordered my CMs'14 True Blue last July and the customization does not offer the White Alloy wheels anymore for the 2014 model.

What should I do? Shouls I buy the wheels or get it powder coated at a shop?
I do not want my Mini scratched and want it to be all new when I get it.

Anyone have any ideas....?

Thanks !

I've had my CM True Blue since the end of May, luv'n it. I too wanted the white wheels, but they were only offered in the larger size and I was warned about the harsh ride. So I opt'd for the silver alloy, but would be interested in having these wheels changed to white, so interested in what people suggest.
