Voted for the polished v701.

I'm sorry but I think the sunken treasure colour is... for lack of a better word, F UGLY.. lol

EDIT: I had to add that space into the word - the internet filter at work blocks that word, wtf?

Go with the polished ones - the sunken treasure looks like brassy and seems to dull the car, especially on a nicely detailed black.

The V701s look great. Not sure about the polished finish though. Reminds me a bit of the ridiculous 20"+ chromies you see on some sh!tboxes.

Agreed. Polished looks so much better than Chromed and you can definitely tell the difference...

Polished looks more like a nickel plating if anyone has seen nickel plating before. Looks awesome. Chrome looks too try hard. If you get chrome you may as well spray your car candy apple pink and put BARB numplates on it lol
