    No. Didn't clear them. But the paint seemed really soft. I put 3 coats on top of the black and let them dry overnight and they were still pretty soft. Anyone got any tips on how to make them look more chrome-like? I tried puttin them on when I had them painted black and it really didn't look right. I've thought about painting them the same color as the truck though.

    Good find bro. I used a flat back base. I guess I'll try high-gloss black then another coat of chrome. I'll go ahead and take some pics and post them as well.
