Default It looks like a tinted clear powder coating like Eastwood's "Chrome Smoke" over polished aluminum.

I like the look, especiall on a black car...makes it faster than fast!


Any power coater could do this, or you could try it yourself with Eastwood's kit.

The problem would be getting a big enough oven at home to bake the wheel.<ul><li><a href="http://www.eastwoodco.com/cgi-bin/sgdynamo.exe?HTNAME=hotcoat/hitechcol.htm&UID=2001120607423249">http://www.eastwoodco.com/cgi-bin/sgdynamo.exe?HTNAME=hotcoat/hitechcol.htm&UID=2001120607423249</a</li></ul>
