> I’m trying not to jump ahead of myself here, but a friend of mine took a look at my wheels tonight and immediately stated that they weren’t black chrome. I shrugged it off at the moment but after going back and looking at other pictures of black chrome, I don’t think I believe it either. Take a look at what I mean. The following is a picture of my wheel with a picture of Whitey’s IC piping inset. Anyone else notice a huge difference in color?

I am not sure if thats a true comparison, you have to remember the lighting is completely different in those pictures. My intercooler piping looks lighter in day light then it did under the shop light with no flash. If there is a problem bring it up to Jason, variances do occur with coatings. Especially on special blends
