I believe that Infiniti does not make these wheels chromed, I think that they would have to be sent out to be chromed. Or you might find some replicas (which might have fitment problems) on ebay.

I just spliced the H3 bulb wires to retain the rubber seal on the fog light casing. I did not have to remove the shield. The H3 mini bulb was a direct replacement.

I doubt ray's would make chrome rims, plus those are wayy too cheap to be real oem wheels that have been chrome plated.

I'm not saying they're not real rays wheels...I'm just saying they didn't come chromed from the factory.....it was done after the fact.
