its really hard to wait now, but don't have any other choice.
Sandeep bhai those Original rims with those elusive clips make me go weak in the knees. ![[:)]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Smile.gif "Smile [:)]")
You are very lucky to have all the clips still intact, i just hope you have checked the spring action of the same. Also one suggestion, fit wheel covers on those clips only on special occasions.
BTW where are the pics of Select, do update on its progress, hope its been polished by now.

If i may contribute something here. Visran i presume you are talking about the white wall inserts which is glued to the tyre sidewalls. I have seen some cars which had these & trust me they looked el cheapo, they were peeling off from sides or had air bubbles or looked too broad.
The white rubber paint which Sandeep has opted for is the best choice, one can apply it as per the requirement, it can be re-coated & no worries if it fits the tyre wall perfectly or not.
Just my 2 cents from what i have experienced.
@ SANDY: Sandeep bhai try to replicate THIN side wall instead of painting the entire portion replicating broad whitewall, it will take more time but will look much better.
