Question Local Place to Chrome Wheel

My CTS-V has factory wheels that were black chromed, I needed a repair and went to usa wheels in Fairfield but they said the wheel was not repairable ( I didn't think so), so I brought a spare wheel, but they don't do black chrome. Can anyone recommend a local place that does do black chrome??

I know a guy that does contracted wheel repairs for auction services and dealerships. I can contact him if you want.

I have seen powder coat in a "black chrome" finish but I'm not sure if that is what you mean.

See if HardcoreZ28 has a contact for you.

I doubt you will find a local place, as chroming is a big environmental hazard and most places were run out of town or out of business.
