Oh right, just I thought that the chrome was there for differentiation. Surely by painting them black the purpose is removed!

well some people think changing things is chav

but hasn't worked out that oem isn't always best.

blacked out matches the arches, aero kit, blacked out beltline and tint and imho really sets the car off. Some black lenses are on the cards asap
