Just oft off the phone with BMW, who say that this is the correct finish. You can either leave them like that, or get them lacquered if you want them shiney

Brilliant

They come un-lacquered. I just bought 2 and was pissed to see they come in a crappy matt finish... looked shite so got Bedford Elms to lacquer them. Now they look all nice and shiny

Must be a new thing cause last time I bought some off BMW, they were lacquered and ready to go straight on. Was a few years ago mind you, maybe 5.

Shame you have to pay a Bodyshop to lacquer them after spending best part of what, £400 on a pair?
