Default Worth it?

I'm thinking about plasti dipping these plastic chrome wheels(not my style) that came on the truck with purchase until I get a new set of wheels. Opinions? Pic

I say yes but I'm a sucker for black rims. And if they look bad you can always remove the plasti dip.

Use some wheel cleaner and chrome polish. Should shine right up.

I cant stand plastidipped rims. Buy black chrome if you want black ones.
