lookin about £50 a wheel... well thats what a mate ov a mate charges anyways......

m8 ask james (j1400) about the diamond cut finish... its awsome proper bling.. and as it's not actually apried to the alloy it wont flake off (like when you chrome dip)

imo though i dont think chromin your wheels would sould your ride...

Diamond cut the way forward, think the astra will be having the alloys refurb's like that to get rid of thwe curbage marks. and look a bit nice,
Yes I know it won't make it go faster, just shhhhhhhhhhhh
