Magnesium Wheels
Has anyone did something different with there magnesiums such as stripped and polished or did something better than those fugly gray plastic lug covers? I like my mags but they need something added to get more curb appeal.

I remember a post a while back where someone had polished the magnesium wheels - looked pretty good. I did a search and didn't come up with any pics although there were some threads talking about polishing them.

When I had the Magnesium wheels on mine, I used the chrome lug nut covers. I thought it looked really good, as it added some "bling" at the center of the wheels. They are not that expensive and might be worth a try to see if you liked them on one wheel first..........

On silver I would go with chrome or high polished. then again I have a pewter coupe with lt oak interior and didnt even wanna go look at it since I thought that combo was ugly....once I did I loved it!
I wish I could get some good feedback from people that have polished their magnesiums and how they have held up!
