I can't tell the finish. In some pics they look chrome, in others they look like a polished/machined aluminum. Does anyone know? If they are chrome, I am uninterested. If not, then I want them.

I would love to get the chrome one's. I'm sure they will be in Ford's catalog within a year.
They would rock on a shiny black 'stang

I posted a thread on this a looooooong time ago. For now they are polished. FORD was putting chrome on the ones at car shows for the bling-bling factor but looks like so far the ones in pre-production are polished.

Awesome! I would really be interested in polished....far more so than I would be chrome.
