Yeh - thought of them m8 then decided did'nt really want to take out a loan to buy them. Think theirs must be platinum coated!! Just wondered if anyone knew of some cheaper options.

You could always take them to a chrome platers, wouldn't take them long, don't know how you'd keep your wheels on while they were being done but it should be cheap.

Why not try Grade A breakers. I'm sure they must have some.

Why not clean them up and paint them? Just find a colour that suits your wheels.
