There's a place in Cal that does the black chrome, from the site it looks like nice work. Sorry can't remember the link, but if you do a search for black chrome wheels you should find it. They had several pics to view.x_caliber50 said:What I think would be sweet on a black bike would be Black chrome. If they do such a thing.
I thought getting my wheel chromed on my silver but chrome has to be sparkling to look good IMO and I don't how hard it would be to keep chrome wheels looking nice.
Check with the person who polishes your wheels, I been advised never to clear coat the polish. I have never clear coated any of my polished parts, and the upkeep was not bad. It is still more work to keep up than chrome though.Aussie109 said:I'm having mine mirror polished then clear coated at the first service.
Hopefully it will be easy to maintain and keep clean.
Will let you know how it goes
