If you are following my fog light question, you can see I'm trying to figure out how the Mahles on my 914 are supposed to be finished. Are they aluminum and sand blasted? Painted? Any guidance this talented and knowledgeable group can provide would be appreciated. I'm even willing to drive that bad boy thousands of miles to 1 914 World outing just to say...thanks! Oh and maybe enjoy some spiritis fermenti with all of those people whose posts I read daily.

How about the lugs, painted or polished?

On my original Mahles, they're finished with a nice coating of rust.
