Bump. I would also like to hear how the paint held up. Did not know everyone was buying the full chrome fuchs and painting them. I'm glad i read this as i was about to pull the trigger on a polished set.

BUMP...Me too. How is the paint holding up. Getting ready to pick up some wide 5 repros and plan to paint also.

Thanks

I've got the chrome center caps painted (pretty tedious work) and one 4.5 chrome rim painted so far with the others to follow soon. I used a slightly more flat black to paint the rim since it appears most original Fuchs were detailed in a dull black. Thanks again for the help,
