No physical hard work, had the wheels professionally refinished. But what a bitch to find center caps that fit. For all you western wheel lovers out there, Centerline caps (c-70) fit perfect.

Those do look good.
I have a very similar set for sale in the C3 parts forum. The ones I have are offset on the back wheels for a wider tire.
Enjoy.

Very Sharp!
I had something similar on my first '80; ET aluminum turbine wheels. They looked great. A bit of a pain in the butt to clean between the vanes, but well worth the effort.
