I'd like them as good as in the photo, but if you could send me a pick of the ones you have 69bug that would be great.

If you want to make them like NEW get a soft cloth and some BRASSO and give them a polish

they will come up like NEW

Give them a good wash first in warm soapy water
to remove all the dirt n grud

R the ones you got Origional HELLA
