   Sorting out your front bumper i think is more off an issue than the wheels,
   but back to the wheels not my cup off tea tbh but i guess there better than having wheel trims

    Yeh there was one screw in each side the front of the bumper was cracked from bottom to like 3/4 of the way up and it was screwed in each side & held on the middle with cable ties.
    That pic is from when i first got the car like 2-3 weeks ago, got new bumper today going to spray next week hopefully

    Wheels arent too bad i don't think, would look a LOT better with lower profile tyres and the car sitting lower.

    fresh lick of paint and they would look good. if you're on a tight budget then keep them alloys are a bastard to afford when you dont get alot of money...

    I think they look okay
    maybe give them a refurb, spray them up black
    or maybe even just give them a clean x

    you also need to get a heat gun on those bumpers
    get them back to black
    if you haven't got a heat gun, use autoglym x
