Un Chroming a wheel?? how?
so i kind of fell for the iroc rims look on a firebird but problem is i fell for the black look not the chrome. i want 18's for my car so itll look totally sick. especially when i repaint my car red.
is there anyway to be able to scuff down the chrome to make them look stock like? then have them coated in black?
i know they used to make cast ones in 18's but not anymore. so instead of looking for not chrome ones id thought of just making my own.
would it be as simple as chipping away the chrome or would it be really difficult to do? i dont mind doing any work since i think itll look sick and ill be the only one around rolling on black 18s.
thanks guys -Aaron
