mod-rewrite

I'm designing an image repository. I want to uncouple the filename from the image html link. For instance:

image in filesystem is called images/items/12543.jpg
HTML is <img src="images/car.jpg" />

Does anyone strongly discourages me to rewrite all image requests using PHP so when retrieving images/car.jpg, Apache really replies content from images/items/12543.jpg?

I don't know if I may get performance problems.
