Ya, you can't chrome magnesium wheels, but you can polish, paint, and powder coat them. Armor Guard powder coats for $30 a wheel. They might paint too, check them out.

Ask questions if you have'em, anyone who thinks they're too cool, know's it all, or doesn't want to look stupid has more problems than you.
