Posted September 29, 200717 yr comment_223122 I took one wheel cover, removed the center and stripped all the paint off. It is a very nice chrome underneath. They might look good this way. Anyone seen them on a car all chrome like this? The masking off is what took the most time. I went and masked off ALL of the dished areas, the rest was masked as original. My thinking is, there is no break line on the inner edge of the dish, so leave it and the bottom tang (?) chrome. See if it adds a little more chrome to the lower portion of the soon to be 115 blue, black tires, dark rims, or if it seems a bit too much chrome. I used Dupli-Color Wheel Coating WP-102 Graphite. This # was taken down some time ago as closest THEY (unk) could find to original and available. Two coats were applied. Taking off the tape was slow and done when the paint was dry yet flexable. I must say it is a different look, in person, the photos were taken at night in a garage. So what do you think, the dished out painted or left chrome? Little darker shade? Less metalic more flat?
