If you have the time and patience, you can give chrome a brushed stainless look (sort of).

You have to have a way to spin the wheel cover, and you hold emery cloth against it, working from inside out, back in, back out, etc. Stop when you like the look.

Don't swirl the emery cloth around, it will mess up the look.
