Is chrome dipping this possible?
Hey guys.. I am thinking about getting new wheels for Christmas. I have a NHB TSX and right now im going for the Chrome look, i no most people dont like it but I do. anyway these are the rims i am looking at...ASA AR9 With Spoke Inserts Machined w/Black Accent
They are 18inch with 45mm offset. I plan on running them with the CF insert and my question is is it possible to get just the machine metal part chromed?
if so how much would this cost?
That way it would give me a black and chrome look
thats what im really going for
If its not possible let me no if you all have some ideas on this or ideas on some wheels?
help me out if you can..

thanks alot guys all feedback is accepted positive and negative
Alec

What they will probably end up doing is chroming the whole wheel then painting the black parts black again. I wouldn't recommend it unless your willing to pay for it to be done right.

and the awards for world's longest signature goes to, da da da da... Alec Cobb! Lol. jp,
but yeah I'm not sure they can chrome just certain parts like that. they'd most likely chrome it all and repaint the black like Carbon said. Could get pricey...
