What did this type of process cost per wheel? Put a nice couple coats of RejeX wax on the wheels if you can before they get mounted. Great at keeping the brake dust off and easy to wash with hot soapy water. Your wheels are dark, so this may not be a concern.
The center caps are too stark, IMO. They stick out too much due to the color contrast. Maybe you can get some painted ones from Eric at Bumperplugs.

Is that like....one US $!!!![EEK!](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif)
That seems like a fair price for the work quality and process involved.
Talk to Eric at Bumperplugs. Maybe he can even do a custom paint color to match the wheels. He does great work.
The Porsche crest cap would look good if the silver was painted. And the "turbo" scrip cap would look good if the colors were in reverse.

I agree but the contrast problem. I would go with jet black and a silver crest or jet black with silver lettering. We need to see some pics of the car once it is all done otherwise you'll be in big trouble. :-)

I have never used a wheel cleaner since using RejeX. Just soap and water.
I even use on my Carbon Fiber interior. If you don't want to use on the entire car, at least use it on leading edges like front bumper, headlights, and side mirrors, for the bugs alone.
Car still needs to be properly washed. clayed and polished. I use as the final step. And between the major-major detail (clay & polish).
