Got them done at a specialist in East Kilbride (near Glasgow). They are black chrome. this involves painting the wheel in black then spray painting the front part of the wheels silver to give the 2 tone effect. I'm well chuffed with the results. All 4 wheels for £220 :clap:

Just need it to stop pissing down so i can get my calipers refurbed[:@]

Good finish, i think laptab in birmingham do the same finish Black chrome
its not OTT it looks OEM but with a nice shiny finish as the original finish on these wheels is best described as dull. I have a emocian red LCR might get this sparkly finish done to em but black gloss would be an obvious one also hmm..:think:
