you'd really need to prep the chrome properly in order to paint them. Personally, I don't think DC-2's would look good all black.

i think that would look sick. My Classic II's are powdercoated and they seem to hold up nice, not really scratched up whatsoever. I've never seen solid black DC2'S, would definitely be original
