Looking for a pic of black fuchs with polished lips, center caps and lug nuts

Polished my lips and caps. Will be repainting the centers black and would like to see a pic of what the lugs would look like polished. Can anyone help a brother out? Thanks!

Is this what your looking for? It kinda works. I later finished off a set with the polished petals and black lug nuts that I liked better.

Just for information...

I just re-painted my black centers with Rust-o-leum 7777 black...and it came out beautifully and fairly faithful to the original color and luster.

For prep, scuff the black painted surface with a scotch brite pad...no need to get it all down to bare, no need for primer too ( all per Harvey Weidman..see thread)..and used black electrical vinyl tape to mask off the black edge from the silvery anodized portion. Perfect. Sorry, no pics....but just look at a factory EOM Fuchs and you'll get the idea of how it turned out !!....

I've been wondering how white wheels with polished centers would look. Anyone got a pic or can you photoshop it?

I mention the black vinyl electrical tape in lieu of the fine line body masking tape.... because the black electrical tape makes following a circular contour VERY easy .....and it's usually available right there in your tool box.
