Yes I did mine,
Removed the chrome with sandpaper, which was easier then I thought.
After that some spray putty, and again with the sand paper to get it as smooth as possible, ground coat and matt black + matt varnish.

It looks way better, but I'm considering powdercoating.
Some pictures attached (don't have any more detailed pictures)

I'm having a friend powder coat a standard chrome rim satin black at the moment.
