yep, its a gloss black base with a mist of chrome. its the absolute worst because you can never really match or repair this finish. and to think, we are so fucking stupid that we buy wheels with this fragile finish. one mistake and its all ugly.
as far as i know, this finish is painted and not possible with powder. also as far as i know, the bmw wheels that come with this same "shadow chrome" finish are inconsistent and rather impossible to find a perfect match.
i would say that black chrome is the equivalent, in some ways, to chameleon paint. a complete pain in the fucking ass. pretty though.
