The back rim looks really bad...but the front one is ok...if you dont like it...just complain enough and i might go do it a little better next time for ya.

looks sweet!! bro.. thanx... does anyone know how much it it to get your rims chromed out??

 

[lifeisdeath]

yeah, about 10 pounds per wheel. but if you dont care then.... bike wheels around here cost $400 each to get chromed. so i would figure about that much for car wheels.

Depend on where you live (coating layers)

Being close to the ocean, the Roush magnesium rims cost me 125.00 for three layers each rim. But it will retain my unsprung weight on the car.

Very cool. Now try it on the real version of the SRT in another color if possible.

 

[Black_Rain]

sure...give me a little time...i'll try to have it up by tonight...any color in particular?

Here's my effort. I tinted the windows too.

It's my first attempt at chrome so it might look like I lost control of the spray can. :lol: :lol:

 

[lifeisdeath]

tint is a little dark for me, but damn black looks nice. 8)

 

[Grunge]

You're right, now that I look at it, that tint is way too dark. I guess tomorrow night will be the re-do.

 

[hemidakota]

To dark.....

Shane Hale at www.ACBCPowdercoating.Com will powder coat rims for like $60.00 ea. I really thinking about doing mine in GUNMETAL.

Only problem is I can't ship my rims to California. I'd be carless for as long as it took. Otherwise it sounds like a good idea. You'll have to post some pics when you have it done.
