    I voted no. I'm a fan of the murdered out look but IMHO it doesn't look good if it's not completely done because you have a chrome grille and bumpers.

    Because those are nice alloy wheels and you'll have to totally destroy them to do prep for paint. If you don't prep it right, the paint won't last and the wheels will look like shit in a short time.

    Sell those wheels and get some black wheels.
