I like the steel wheels/hubcaps on a show car, but they look very dated on the street. Clean, painted bundts look good; I have polished (not chromed) bundts, which took about 40 hours to do (the forgings are not perfect, the original paint is deliberately very thick, and it takes a LOT of work to get them to 98%). They get dirty, they get tarnished - but some polishing and they can always look like new.
