well those lips you see in that picture of that Z, they arent chromed. A lot of people are mistaken about those lips. they are highly polished aluminum. Which is what mine are now.

No. The previous owner had them professionally chromed. Sorry if the pics look a little misleading.

You should know these are multi-pieced wheels. Yes, he had just the lips chromed.

Of course i know, i took the faces off to get them painted. you can tell if a gt-7 has been repainted or not, because the gt-7's normally come with a silver center, while the spokes are painted.
