I've got a set but no pics on the car i'm afraid.

 

Search though Fangio's posts as he has posted some pics of his when he did them about a year ago iirc.

My advice to you would be not to do it.

 

I have had both diamond cut wheels and machine polished wheels on my Pugs and both eventually got chipped laquer and started to corrode.

mine were raw metal, polished up a treat, i waxed them rather than laquered, its alot of effort keeping them shiney though.

Yeah, don't bother Mate. Complete PITA to look after and end up looking really poor in no time at all.

dont laquer them. just keep them polished (not a lot of work, every two weeks ish in the summer) and wipe WD40 over them in the winter to protect them.

i have a set for sale PM me if your intrested.

Matt.
