Don't suppose it looks that bad actually.

have sorta decided that i want the inner bits to be dark chrome finish - i assume this is the colour people mean when they say that http://www.motor-world.co.uk/images/hires/8514.jpg, well thats what i mean by dark chrome, pls correct me if i'm wrong. - or should i go for this finish? http://www.motor-world.co.uk/images/hires/8568.jpg - apparently called shadow chrome finish.

and i'll polish up the outsides myself.

anyone photoshop handy on here wanna do a mock up of bbs wheels in this finish on a red gti?

also - anyone know where i can get this done? i'm north london/hertfordshire area

ta guys

ps - thanks inder for the mockups

If you're able to put a spare set of wheels on whilst yours are refurbed, then BJV Engineering might be of interest, in Herts:
