8X16 polished lip with contrasting blue centers. Actually color matched to the car they came off of but I kinda like the contrast with the Gulf Blue...

Self-polished per the instructions available via the search function of this site. Wasn't too tough, although I had the luxury of spreading the process over the course of a week.

Little fingers must be great for getting in between the lug nuts and the wheel.

Harvey Wiedman stock finish. No where near concours, but you have to look pretty darn close for flaws. PS...Hat's off, and my compliments, to htron435 and kilodawg. I love'm. Gorgeous. All the wheels in this thread look really nice.
