Ahh, I am now certainly a slave to cosmetic appeal.  along the lines of "but
that doesn't make it run any better", I managed to patch together new wheel
centers for my pseudo-Enkei webbed rims.   (no noticeable performance
gain...although I am sure Terry Cost can rationalize ~15hp out of these, or
at the very least improved intergalactic microwave reception)
Winning a set of 'spinners' with 3 pointed winglets in the Solvang raffle
got me going on this project, but that set didn't fit my rims.  Finding the
right set was a challenge, but between the local hot rod swap meet and the
sticker guy from e-bay, this was the result.

now all I need is the best recommendation for aluminum polish to get the
rim-lips shiny.... then the next neighboring thing will look dull, etc, etc,
etc.
