Chrome or Black Chrome on Silver Viper?

[georgethedog]

I am thinking about having my the wheels on my silver Gen 3 chromed. I originally thought regular bright silver chrome, but have been wondering how the black chrome might look... Any ideas or any pictures of a silver car with black chrome? Thanks.

I love my bright chrome on my dark car, but I think black chrome would look awsome on a silver car. Even better than the black wheels that I have seen guys do on silver.

i saw a set of black chrome wheels on a silver tuner recently, i think it would look great on a silver car. go for it

Black chrome looks to me like bright chrome with brake dust

I would say black chrome. Time for a poll!

Go black. I like the pic in the other thread of the glossy black powder coat.

Not black chrome, but you get the black on Silver idea.

I would not do the entire black wheel thing because my car is accented with GTS Blue (stripe, emblems, etc.) and I am not sure that would look good.

It looks like a lot of people like the black chrome idea on silver. I've been looking for pictures but I still can't find a good one. Still undecided.

IMO Bright chrome, because of your blue accents. I'll try to find you a picture of black chrome though just in case you decide to go that route.

Yea, I remeber that thread... It kind of morphed into a "paint wheels black" thread so I started one asking a different question. I also decided from that thread that I want to chrome them so that also led to a new question, hence the new thread. I quess nobody has done Black Chrome on a silver Viper (or any silver car for that matter) as no pictures have appeared. Gotta at least try though... I may go looking on the Vette forum for a silver Vette with Black Chrome. I'm still a member on the forum from the days I had a C6 a few years back. It would still be ideal to see a Viper pic even if it is not silver.

Thanks Slithr, I am leaning to bright chrome, but I really would like to see a pic of black chrome before I make a final decision.
