I saw these locally, has the Type S wheels ever came chrome or is this a custom paint job?

 

I believe the S Type did have this chrome option.

 

Wildest thing, was driving to PDX last week and spotted a Type-S with these same chrome waffles and was sure it was custom, though it looked nice!

Anyone have literature on these chrome waffles?

 

I was thinking about strpping the paint off mine and polishing up the aluminum to either a chrome-ish, or polished aluminum, or a brushed aluminum look. It all depends on how much buffing you do on it.
Either way, it would be a lot of work. Just painting the Waffle wheel is a pain because of all the corners and sides. Each square or triangle has 3 or 4 sides and you gotta rotate around to get it even. Just a pain. This is last on my list. haha cover with some 2k clear. Or go to paint store and get Dupont Chromaclear That stuff is top notch. Everyone else copied dupont.

 

might be done by same guy who did my oem wheels

I love mine they are far from factory lol

 

Some dealers had the wheels chrome plated when new.
