Default Question about stock wheels

I have a 2009 v6 pony package that came with 18" polished forged aluminum wheels. When I bought my car the wheels had already been painted with plasti dip. I was looking at the production report and it said 9.8% came with this option, I think that is only 2000 for that year. I was wondering if anybody had these and had a picture of them unpainted.I could peel the paint off, but I dont know what kind of shape they are in underneath. I think the same style wheel came on the gt but it was machined.

Plastidip can hide scratches and small chips, but major damage can't be
covered up. Also, it's not not difficult to re-dip them should you peal the stuff
off, it's just the cost of the material.

Part# for the Polished is: 8R3Z1007S

Thanks for the picture, that was exactly the kind of picture I was looking for, I didn't think they would be that shiny. I guess I will just peel the one wheel that has some peeling already, and decide what to do then. If anyone actually has these wheels on their car I would like to see them as well.

If you check the eBay link, not all of them are that shiny, you have to
clean and shine them up, the model# is, I think, 3707P. 3707 for non
polished.
