I have not seen black chrome wheels on a Grand Sport. I bet it will look great.

I've seen OEM ones for sale on a popular auction site for $1300 for all 4. A friend of mine wants to get them for his arctic white GS. Should look great!

That PVD is nice and light. My buddy does that stuff. All OEM coatings.
Shiny, Black, anodized look.. Its pretty slick. Basically powdercoat with refraction.

Checked out your Z they look great. They did your center caps too? SDMA told me they can't do them because they are plastic?
