Right on!
hahahahaa
Seriously though I'm sure it sucks but just wait till you're on the road again- it will look awesome.
I know my ceramic coating, although not polished, is pretty dull. I would think that even polished it would not look much like a typical chrome finish.

Holy smokes! Besides the regular flatuance, I thought you gave up on us. Have you installed those stripes yet?

Well guys I'm officially pissed off..... I have a photoshoot scheduled for next weekend, so I thought I'd start getting the car cleaned up and prepared. My calipers are painted and have developed some chips so I raised the car up and supported it on stands and went to remove my tires.
On the first attempt, the key to my wheel locks shattered! Literally the internal engraving (the part that fits into the lock) just went into a hundred pieces. I managed to get it out of the lock, but the key is junk so now I can't remove my friggin' wheels. I pulled the lock ID card and called the place, and of couse they're not open on Saturdays. I really, really hope I can get them to overnight me a new key for delivery on Tuesday.

Well that really does suck. You might want to buy 2 of them so you have a backup I would also recommend different lugs. These are what I have. They seem very strong.
