Good or Bad Idea? '06 Wheels

[Elemino]

Has anyone ever considered painting these black? Professional, not spray paint.



I've been considering having them chromed, but I'm not sure what would look better.

Edit: Sorry about the image. I made this post from my phone.

Paint them black with plasti-dip to see if you like them black. If you dont like it you can just peel off the plasti-dip and have them chromed. Its cheap and easy to help you decide

If you end up doing it with plasti-dip, do it with the glossifer to.

I've been thinking about Plasti Dipping mine to see what it looks like. Ill let ya know whenever I finally get around to doing it lol

Fixed image.. sorry, OP was made using my cell phone.

BlackLS06, I think of your car everything I think of this. lol

I haven't seen them in chrome in person, so it's hard to decide. It's a lot easier to paint then go chrome, than it is the other way around.

I'm not a fan of completely black wheels, but it's not my car. They do look good in chrome, especially when clean.

They do look pretty good. Wish I had a friend with a shop that could make these in a slightly larger size. lol

Does anyone sell the center caps for these? (I'm scared to know what the dealer would want if I can get them there.)

center caps? you can get them from tasca on ebay for around $30/ea new.


By the way i would say that even though the 06s look good in chrome, i wouldn't waste my money on having a set chromed. I would invest in new jag/aftermarket wheels instead.

The problem is, there aren't many out there I have seen that I like. I've only seen one wheel posted on this site so far I'd consider buying.
