My question is has anyone carbon/hydro dipped their wheels?
My black VXR8 needs a bit of attention! the brake callipers (red VXR) have faded... not decided yet on redoing them in yellow or blue with HSV logo, and my 20inch shadow chrome's have started to bubble a little around the centres, and got a few small tell tale kerb battle scars! the centre caps have gone dull and need replacing also...I know I should just get them re-done again in shadow chrome, but cant seem to dismiss the idea in my head of carbon/hydro dipping them.

part of me is a little worried it'll get too dark with black paint, tinted windows and carbon wheels...also its wearing 245s on the front and 285s on the back on the 20"s but offers little or no protection at all for the alloys. could I go bigger on tyres without catching them in the wheel arches?
