i don't think he did, it looks better if you take all the paint off then polish it because it is aluminum

I just cleaned up all of the dirt and then sanded everything down and painted it with chrome paint..I think it looks awesome myself.
Plan on getting this really shiny gold paint and repainting the rims because the old paint has started to peel..still deciding if I want to use that or something else
