I thought about it and came to the conclusion that the most I would leave chrome would be the rivets on the outside edge.

But honestly, I'm with atomicgoofball (can't believe I even admitted that ) I think the all black looks aggressive as hell.

I also blacked out your other chrome in the pic above to give you an idea of the final product...

Are you sure the rivets are really metal? The hex cap bolts on my Mazzis looked metal untill the rims went into the tank. Nothing left of them. Gotta drill and tap some threads in them now and putting real hex caps in painted bodycolor.

I'd forget about the chrome, do the rivets in white to tie the wheels into the body color- Make it look like every part was designed specifically for your rig.

It looks good but honestly, I think I’m gonna stick with just the wheels... not sure why.

Thanks, it’s been definitely worthwhile. I was hoping that when I got it done, it wasn’t a POS and it’s been as factory as I could have asked.

Thanks for the compliment.

Yeah, I unbolted them today. They definitely metal... definitely useless but real metal...lol.

It's weird, just a few short weeks ago, I hated black wheels, and now all 3 of my vehicles have black wheels...

Oh I agree! I think powdercoating them would be awesome.

[H2bill]

I recall sometime ago someone powder coated the factory chrome wheels. Anyone recall who it was and/or have the photos?

[OrangeCrush]

Jsut an update... I sent my wheels off to get powdercoated at the beginning of this week.

I?ll probably get them back the first few days of the week.
