what is the best one to get (shadow chrome or chrome)?




the problem with chrome is that once it starts to go (due to wear and tear from stone chips, weather etc.) it'll go! when road salt gets underneathe the chrome work you'll suffer from flaking.

i don't know what you mean about shadow chrome or chrome, i assumer you mean the colour, shadow being more darker? get whichever you want, there is no "best one to get"

an alternative is getting a set of alloys polished. needs to be kept clean aswell though.

my 'chrome' bsa alloys are now peeling after 11 months and they look terrible up close! i wouldn't recommend them unless you take VERY good care of them!
