  • Making my stock wheels chrome, price question.

      Wow that much? I was thinking that place near Beck & Masten on fallbrook and 1960 would do it cheap, guess not :(

      U live in NW Houston so I figured u know where I meant.

        ok well first in order for you to chrome your wheels your wheels have to be metal so the chrome will stick i doubt your rims are metal right?

        So they first have to dip the wheels in copper, then dip them in chrome so the chrome will stick to the copper.

        I have a homeboy who works at a chrome shop and i asked him the same thing about chroming my rims and he said about 600-800
