Yes. just Chrome lip.. but still. its chrome.

Also, only thing that is allowed that is chrome on the car is Chrome exhaust tips.



Two things you can chrome on our cars, the lips on a rim, and the tips of an exhaust.

chrome is like a fat chick. no matter how much you have been drinking, there is always a few good friends that will stop you from making a mistake. thats what were here for.

now put the bottle down. sleep it off.
Fat chicks need some loving too...

On a serious note, I hate chrome and I only have my tips left to do...

I think Chrome wheels if done tastefully can look good on our cars. Being tasteful is the trick

IMO Not Tasteful


Member "pmmeke" had some sweet wheels, can't find a pic right now. I actually believed they were DPE "bright polished".
But they looked like chrome (from pics anyway). So finding the right wheel I think is the challenge.

I also found this pic; now this looks good to me
