Does anybody have any info on Chroming of Wheels?
I have a light silver XE CC with the 18 inch SE Wheels and was wondering if anybody else had looked into chroming these wheels. I was considering it to create some contrast from the color of my truck.
They are cast aluminum which I think might present some challenges.

Specifically has anyone had wheels chromed aftermarket before?

Does it last?

Am I making a mistake by chroming over aluminum?

What should it cost?

Does anybody know of a place that does it that is reliable.

I've seen some on Ebay, out in CA. and they are asking for $600 plus shipping both ways and an additional $600 core deposit? (whatever that is?)

I live in Orlando so the shipping to CA. would be pretty high. looking for somebody closer.

any info would be appreciated. thanks.
