Yeh I've seen them on 2 scoobs and IMO they look excellent. I have heard that they've had problems with the lacquer, but it could be just rumour.
Go for it!

I was advised that BK used a soft alloy, ie easy in damage, kerb.

Hi Deep
They looked nice'n'shiny that's for sure but I'd listen carefully to what David Hill has to say as I'd heard this from someone else.
Check it out with a BK supplier!
