Default custom painting wheels

does anyone know of a qaulity shop that will custom paint/chrome wheels. i live in northern va. but i'm willing to ship. i think i wanna keep my stock wheels, although i want to paint them black, and chrome the lip. just a thought... i love that black, with chrome lip look. also wondering where about the cost maybe, and if its worth it. or should i just buy new rims with that style.

Anyone will do anything, for a price. Personally, I think wheels with a chrome lip look best when the inside of the wheel is dished in. Our stock wheels don't do that and I think it would look pretty tacky. I'd just get new wheels.

Some people have just used the stock steelies and bought some cheap chrome trim rings Just wax or grease up the black paint youl be surprised how much better it looks, I have done this and it looks much better than the stock plastic hub caps.
