Actually, we were talking about the whole RX in chrome! :D Latest (?) craze in UK and US - but NOT cheap!!! Me still saving... :p

U can chrome the original rims - there are shops offering that. But whether it'll last is anyone's guess.

Alternatively, u can get the original rims in chrome - MS option (I think). Have seen it in a catalogue b4.

I got a quote 1 mth ago regarding about chroming the whole car. The paint alone is around $2500++ per can. it will take around 2 can to do the job. So the paint price is $5000++ excluding workmanship.

So the total price will definitely be more than $6K+++

After lots of layers of zaino, the black looks pretty alright! But one of the nicest black paintjob I have ever seen is on a Bentley Arnage at the Malayan Motors showroom...no orange peel and really looks like a darken mirror! Awesome!
