HAHA as everyone says "beware of the first mod" it can be VERY addicting. I am in the process of blacking out all the chrome. Fun little project.

Do it!
The change affects the wheels and the entire vehicle dramatically. And if you dont like it is always completely reversible!

In my case, Plasti Dip black finished with Plasti Dip glossifier
