These are readily available new in 17x7 or 17x8.5. Not a bad looking wheel and they bolt straight on.

The bumper and mirrors are so black. What do you guys think was used? Paint? Tint? Or some kind of plastic "restorer"?

I've seen quite a few videos about plastic trim restorers but never heard of this one. I'll check it out. It's available on amazon.es for 30€. If it works well, it's well worth it.

EDIT:
This guy claims Owatrol is linseed oil. He says in the video he has used boiled linseed oil mixed with white spirits and achieved the same results.

One reason the paint and bumpers are so good might be because it had only done 17,400 miles or 28,000 km when the picture was taken in 2014!

They're called 'Barzetta Star'.
