Thanks, Yea pedro I've already noticed the dust collecting, I'm keeping a rag in the car to wipe them down every now an then, would be good to invest in some low dust pads just have to find some. :/
Yea roadkill i got the gauge faces made up by a guy on ebay, the only issue i have with them is removing the bright hotspots with the LED's that i installed and the fact that they are somewhat reflective in the sunlight. Not sure if the Australian Pintara/corsair dash's are a 100% match to the import bluebirds as i haven't seen one in person yet :(

With regards to dust, on the old chrome rims I had, all i used to do once it was clean was spray it with Mr Sheen or similar. Basically it formed a coat on the rim that the dust stuck to but it didnt stick to the wheel, so quick was and the rims were pristine.

I havnt done it on the new rims because the dust doesnt really stand out.

Always check it on an unseen part of the rim first to make sure it wont have any issues with the paint you've used.

Yea i will give that a go Kranzy, I'll try my some stuff I have laying around, I'm not too worried about the paint coming off as it was cheap leftovers. I'm planning on getting them powder coated when i can scrape the cash together.
Also heres a photo of them on the car, still need to throw in the lowered king springs.
