I thought they look more like a shadow chrome colour?

Gonna have to bite the bullet and go for a re-furb too, so would be interested if you go for the exact formulation as per the thread link above.

If not let me know and I'll contact her - last thing she will want is for a mass influx of mails.

I had mine done recently but I went for a change. The darker Alloys look great against the WR1 Blue IMO. But still love the original too!

Its midnight blue. Black from a distance but up close at the right angle you catch the blue.
Acid dipped-repaired-Powder coated-tyres on & balanced. Love them, people seem to notice the car more now since they done. Wait till I get my Blitz Nur Spec on! :twisted:

Dayo...Get some Photos on when done mate. Be nice to see your new baby anyway !
