^ thanks everyone .... Hey scott , I used a spray kit from dupli color ,called shadow .... Its two parts , the shadow can which is transparent black , that you shoot over anything chrome , then special clearcoat that seals it and makes it more durable and shiny.... All I did was clean any chrome parts with dish deteregent and warm water , dried the parts good , then sprayed , the more coats you add , the darker the shade ..... Its pricey , but what isn't now a days lol ...
