Bling? They come from the factory yellow cadmium plated, but cadmium plating has gone the way of the dodo because of those sissies at the EPA. This is just a resto thing - putting them back to original-ish condition. Now, if he were to paint them red and put a Type-R sticker on them, that would be hella-sweet.
