Default Blacked out
So today I got tired of the chrome rims on my wife's roush fx2 and decided to go black chrome after starting the process I wasn't happy so I went with solid black and these are the results

Paint started out with black chrome and it didn't turn out good so I did gloss black caliper ceramic paint about 5 coats and three coats of dupli color rim clear.

Looks way better. I'm sure the wife is pleased. If it was my wife's truck, I would darken those mirror reflectors. Sweet ride T.
