Difference being shadow chrome(if there wolfrace wheels) are not proper chrome wheels.They just have a darker tint to them that normal chromes but yet they dont look the same as "normal" silver alloys

I've got M3 alloys but the silver is peeling badly. Where do you get alloys restored. How much would it cost?

Any body-works shop should be able to do them.

Cost depends on type of wheel, damaged? size etc.. shop around

Price can vary hugely,were are you located?

A good option is powder coating,it can look the business depending on colour.
Id say at a minimum your talkin 60 - 100 per wheel
