I want to do this, just don't know how it would look on red... Contemplating blacking out the head/tail lights as well. Worried about it chipping off too. I just wouldn't want to put all this time and effort into painting rims just to have the paint chip and look awful.

Same here. My pontiac rims were a chore. A pro painter close by is going to do mine if he keeps a tight schedule. REP for you and the pictures + Prep work. Keep going!

I came across this place on ebay that does a swap for "PVD Chrome" It almost looks black when they do it. Anyone familiar with that? I wonder how durable it is?
