All Chrome GTA 16in rim?
Hey,
Im thinking of restoring the rims on my T/A there 16in crosslaces. I was wondering what they would look like all chrome? What do you guys think?
Thanks!

crosslaces And lip being chrome?...I can't see it looking decent. the gta rims look 100% best as the stock goldish color, or black. w/polished lip.

A car I saw locally had the gold.crosslaces finished with a chrome lip and the gold was of the same reflective finish, annodized I guess. Looked great

Re: All Chrome GTA 16in rim?

They look pretty cool dipped in chrome. Plus they're not very common like that. Go for it dude!
