    well i decided to plasti-derp the chrome first incase i didnt like the white, i could take it off. then i used rustoleum white enamel. just make sure you let it FULLY DRY otherwise it will come off easy. just follow what they reccommend on the can. it has held up really good even with the plasti-derp behind it and ive had it for a few months

    yea i think so, it might not stick well unless you roughen up the powdercoat a bit though

    if i could get'um powdercoated both colors i would. i just feel the blacked out rims wouldn't compliment the rest of the color shceme and it's just a lil uniqueness to set mine apart from the rest of the white tacomas out here,( there are a shit ton). "shit ton" being a technical term.:D

    oh yea. the enamel is sticking pretty well to the "rough" plasti-derp surface. probably better than the unsanded chrome

    personally, i would go one solid color. all black or all white. two tone only works with black and "shiny"

    but its not my truck;)
