ZR1 wheels looking a bit tired, has anyone attempted to refinsh/paint them?
I have a set of aftermarket ZR1 wheels which I purchased new back in 2002. They are polished and clear coated and the clear coat is cracking all over the place making them rather tired looking.
I was thinking of maybe trying to refinish them and go for the gunmetal gray look. Has anyone attempted this? What do I look out for and what paint would I use? Try and find a duplicolor rattle can? Sand, aim, and spray?
Any suggestions are appreciated.

I considered that too, but there's no local guys around that powder coat anything but basic colors which I really don't want to do, especially at that cost. Having them chromed is even more expensive at which point new wheels would be more affordable.
