OEM in Black Chrome

UR2SLOW1 · 10-27-2008, 10:19 AM

Has anyone had their stock 135i rims refinished in Black Chrome yet ?? I'm seriously considering this mod but would love to see it first. Anyone ??

I'm looking into it now. Getting a quote tomorrow. I'm to the powder coating place next week to look at his sample. Black Chrome is really cool looking.

Should be roughly $50-$60 per wheel, with clear.

I sanded and prepped my winter wheels (17" e39 m5 reps) and am having a friend paint them in black chrome. Duplicolor has a two step kit that you can get in any autoparts store for about $20 that is designed for wheels. I will get pictures taken professionally later in the month after I buff my car.

You and the OP as well

Any photos of the stock rims/black chrome at a distance on the car? Black chrome looks so good. I'm not sure how they will look on my Crimson Red 135.

I think BMW is starting to offer its wheels in a black finish. Atleast I saw some new 1er's with black wheels on my last trip to the dealer here.

They have had the Style 261 in black for awhile ( M Sport package style rim)

This looks really good. If anyone gets this done in the NYC or Tri-State, please post details of where you took it.

Thanks.
