Black Chrome Rims?
Would you please share some "black chrome rim" pics w me and the best vendors to contact. Thanks to all in advance. I'm thinking black chrome and Arctic White might be a great combo?

The black chrome process is very fragile and they scratch easily. They don't warranty the black chrome on street driven cars. At least the vendor (and I don't remember the name) I spoke to dosen't.
I also saw the same disclaimer on some black chrome rear marker light covers.

That's the look I'm trying to achieve. If CCW will make me a set like yours I'll be next in line. I thought powder-coat might be the way to go but yours are classic's. I like the racy look of powder-coat but not my style.

This was an awesome wheel, and by the time I got a C5 they weren't available anymore. But we'll see......
