Well Doug never did say that but I had a vision of how I wanted these wheels to look. About there. But man that was a lot of buffing! Decent shine now compared to before.

Hey Mike,

They look great all shiny, but you may want to have them clear-coated afterwards, since that magnesium alloy that they're made of is super prone to pitting & oxidation, ergo the factory silver paint.
