Default Thinking of Plastidipping my Saleens. Need Opnions

I have the 18" chrome saleens, but I want to try to make them more original, so I am thinking of plastidipping them matte black and leaving some of the chrome to accent the black.

LOVE MY MSPAINT! LOVE IT!

Leaving the chrome will be the tough part. You can mask off plasti dip but you have to pull it back off while its still wet. Otherwise it dries and peels all the plasti dip off when you pull the masking tape back off. They would looks sick solid black though

I'm not really looking for full black wheels, I'd like to have something similar to whats in the pic, but I'm not sure if it would look right, so I'm asking for opinions on whether it would look good with a black wheel w/ the chrome edges to accent it

It would definitely be different. And I think it would look ok as long as its done right. If you want to try it I say go for it

Saw this, he did a 2 tone plasti dip on top of other plasti dip. He went step by step and it seemed to work great, so i dont see why you couldnt follow his directions and it would work.
