Default Painted Rims.
Anyone ever done this or had it done? I have some chrome wheels that I think I would want to paint black. Anyone know the cost if I had it done?

Thanks guys!

Default You could....
Have them powder coated, which is what most people do to paint their rims. The only problem there is that I think that the chrome would have to be stripped off first. I could be wrong, but I know that powder coating rims is great. I have had some friends do it; you can put flakes in them and get whatever color in whatever shade you want. I would call around locally.
