Default painting wheels chrome

Hello. I currently have my stock 2002 z28 wheels painted black. i want to re-do them in chrome, but would like to see if anyone has had success with this option. i did a good job with little experience and rushed with the black, so if i do these in chrome, i have a spare set ready to make this a 2-3 day job, and get it done right.

so...

any suggestions on methods? paint? anyone paint wheels chrome before?

thanks

alright, now there are "chrome in a can" kits but if youre going for a chrome look, they will always look dull as opposed to real chrome. If youre going for a real chrome look, you will be disappointed...
