Bmw's wheels warranty & powdercoating

Anyone know if you get the wheel warranty with bmw, and you powder-coat the wheels, would that void the warranty by any chance?

This guy's finance manager said powder coating doesn't negate warranty

Yea i am. Im getting a AW and want to go with the dark wheels, so im debating of powdercoating the stock 20's an getting the bmws wheels warranty. Or mayb i get a new aftermarket set of rims but then no bmws warranty and on my e92 that was a pain since i didnt have it and i drive alot to nyc which the roads couldnt be any worse.

I would get this in writing if they approve it. I can just see them now saying the baking process caused weakening of the wheel should you crack or bend it.
