Looks like crap, you should give them to me and spare yourself of humiliation in the G3 community. I'll bear the burden for you.

after the polishing

mine are off an 81. they are polished from the factory and do not have the black center hub area. i did go with the caps with the black instead of the all chrome. it accents very nicely.

i sent mine to a polish guy @ 60 a wheel. was well worth it. he not only polished them,but he made a new outside lip because they had a little curb rash. they have been on the car since 2003 and still look as good...

That's because you bring them inside for the winter & prob wrap them in blankets :-D @ $60/ea + what U paid, think I'd do the same.

I used white diamond polish. Can get it at Advance for around $15 a bottle. Best stuff I have found. I would love to find someone to do work on mine like yours 1973454Monte. The lips on mine are also chewed up pretty bad. Would happily pay $60 a pop. And those are the best lugs I could find. Got them off ebay and they are cheap, already chipping away.
