I didn't expect the finnish to be 'original' as the dealer seemed 'in the dark' when I mentioned the process involved,and how hard it was , but I wanted them done so accepted the silver finish I eneded up with.

They look fine and suit that car, so will do for now... but I do love the shadow finish....

Sorry if this sounds dumb but can you have a shadow finish put on any alloys? I have the 11 spoke straights on my ZT and although nice in silver I would like a shadow chrome finish. I've looked at replacing them with the Apex ones but I really do like the 11 spoke straights, just not the finish!
