yea, but if you have seen how some of that “chome” wheels on older GM’s tarnashes and corrodes i wouldnt be suprised if he at least asked for it… ever seen those old pontiac GTP chrome 5 spoke wheels where the chrome is literally peeling away…

kinda like those white luminas where the entire paint peels off in leparcy splotches
