I'm partial to the silver. Not a fan of chrome. It's your car though - do what makes you happy.

Reach out to some of the venders that offer the chrome and ask for a 'polished' offering. I'd think there's likely product out there.

There is another option. The '93-'96 sawblades were machine finished not painted. The center caps are not painted, but a finish to match the machined finish.

They might look better than the painted ones.

Good luck.
