No Sir I don't need to research. I figured you were talking about chroming the metal side covers. Simple as that. If your chroming plastic that is another story, I know that and not everyone can chrome plastic.

What I would like to know is how many R*'s have plastic side covers? I know that my inner pieces are plastic but I was under the impression that all side covers on the R*'s were metal?

well here is the post maybe you should read more carefully before you jump in!

Looks good! Whats the cost of PVD vs Chrome? Can you PVD over plastic or fiberglass? ie.. side covers?

Alright so I just read it again. You mentioned PVD and conventional chrome, am I correct in what I read??? You mention 2 types. So I guess I jumped in on the conventional chroming. So don't get upity over what I read!

TCG,
Do you only do exchanges or can you sell your PVD Raider wheels outright?

Ok. I have factory spoke wheels and want factory non spoke wheels with chrome instead. How much? I live in columbus ohio so I'd be picking them up instead of shipping.
