wow that is a big difference, have you alloys got like a plastic coating on them, as i noticed on my santa monicas the plasttic coating had turned a yellowy-ish colour and made the alloys look a dimmer colour lol

Aah that must be what it is. I was wondering if they had been painted or coated in something. On the old one if I look closely I can see where the coating is wearing off. Hmmm I guess I'll just have to put up with the difference then :(
