This is my Beat which i hope to fix up in the new year starting with the alloys
, i have been quoted £215 to have them powder coated in any one colour or £250 to have just the lip/ dish polished , i quite like the colour of the spokes ( kinda a dark bronze , hard to see in the photos ) so just getting the polish would be ok , but im still not sure what to do , any thoughts folks ??

Keep the dark bronze spokes. A set of Stainless Beauty Rings for $50 will give you your polished lip look. cheap and tasty?

i went the cheap way too, im still trying to find nice wheels that will fit and i really want to put 7" on it. But i know they will stick out to much and i wont be able to steer.

i have never seen or heard of beauty rings before , ill look into this as it just might work , i will prob buy a Dremel and get to work on the real rims aswell .
