Black Chrome?
Black Chrome? So while watching PowerBlock the other day I saw this Duplicolor Black Chrome Paint. Long story short my wheels have bored the hell out of already and I think this would be a cheap alternative till I can buy new wheels again, what do you guys think? Anybody tried it before?

I like black chrome alot..I have some of that shadow stuff and it looks ok on small parts but very hard to do big piece without it having streaks from over lap. I say leave them alone.

I think the black chrome looks amazing but I would be too worried about the paint not lasting. I had a set of wheels painted with automotive grade paint and they developed quite a bit of chips after a year.

No input on the wheels, but can you please post up more of your car showing off the black sail panel? I also have a silver car and I've been thinking about painting the sail panel black for some time.

Verdad Gallardo Well looks like they might be staying chrome, I might look into doing it professionally but I have a feeling it'll be more than I wanna spend on these wheels.
These might help, let me know if you wanna see other angles.

My friend had it on his motorcycle and it looked good. The sun messed with it though and it turned yellow. He also did his supra wheels with it and it's still on there, but he also drives that car only a few times a season.
