Smoked chrome looks good

I had my wheels refurbed in 'semi-gloss black'.

I didn't want gloss as imo it makes the tyres look really dull, but i didn't want matt as i think they look dirty all the time!

Luckily, the powder coating place offer a 'semi-gloss' option which works really well.

Just something to keep in mind if you do decide to go for black!



hope this helps!
