  1. This is correct today i fitted a set of 20 that were made for the lexus fit perfect only difference is they are 21mm nut instead of 19mm i had a barain 20 x origional nuts a guy bought never fitted sold the car for 15 quid delivered :) they seem a better quality
  2. To get this factory finish First of all I got 800 wet and dry you then rub around the rough parts and deep rash, I then got some chemical metal mixed it filled and gouges I waited for it to dry and the sanded it down to a smooth shape and finish Then with 800, 1000 1500 wet and dry completely go over the wheel with the papers in the order mentioned Remove all the dust then get a filler primmer and spray the entire wheel I then smoothed it all with 1600 wet and dry I then once again removed all the dust I then sprayed the wheel with 3 cotes of graphite grey wheel paint I then left it to dry I then painstakingly masked of all the new paint leaving the rim and the faces of the spokes exposed for the next process. I then bought some chrome spray and covered the remaining area. I then let them dry then slowly and carefully removed the tape This is the important part please pay attention this must be done to get that factory finish I then though god they look sh1te, fook this and bought 4 new wheels from Jaguar
