Hey folks

I want to black chrome my stock wheels. The wife can not visualize it. Is there anyone out there that could find or photoshop the stock wheels black chrome on a Blue Marauder? It is helpful is she approves of this project ... It saves a lot of :argue:.

Thanks! :bows:

It is WAY better than I could ever do! So thanks!

I think I like that look. Now to convince the wife and get it done! I want to to the exhaust tips at the same time, but that shop will not do them ... Those i may be willing to attempt on my own.

Won't the exhaust heat ruin the coating?

There's very little heat by the time the exhaust reaches the tail pipes , the tips will be fine.

Member blackend300A tried the dupli color spray for his exhaust but I dont think it lasted that long. Your best bet would be the black chrome power coat.

No epic fail. It flaked off on my 15 minute drive home. Those tips get hotter then I expected them to.

The truck is going in for warranty repairs. Once that is done, the wheels come off and go in for black chrome. Also helps, the shop is busy and will not take my wheels without an app .... Expected first week of the November.
