Working on getting the wheels all torqued down and sealed up. Hope to have these bad boys mounted on the car this week!

Well i'm about to have these bad boys all put back together. Gotta finish polishing the hell out of them, and them its time for re-assembly. Cant wait to see how they look on the car.

I did have a deposit down...that's why he "sold them from under me"...am I the only one who hears that phrase...Kind of like how the guy I was buying caps tickets from sold the tickets he offered me after I accepted the deal he offered

Damn...I almost bought a set of these last year...the dude sold them from under me since I had him wait two weeks because I was in school...still pissed haha

Nicely done

LOL sold from under and you had him wait two weeks... not being mean, just sounds hilarious you would phrase it like that unless you put down a deposit or something.

Well I spent almost the entire day yesterday polishing up the tarnished and terrible looking bolts. Got them set down into the lips and also got my new caps in thanks to another member on here. Here's a couple crappy quick snaps

oh theyre going to look great.

Well guys I'm on my way to pick up the faces. Decided to keep them a little conservative since they are a little rare around these parts, and don't wanna take away from the wheel itself. Lips should be done sometime this week too. Here's a little sneak peek of them...

I just can't stand anything too plain tho. Probably doing polished bolts

Color's nice..Too much flake for me though. Gold/polished bolts would be nice.

[gen2_4door]

Well guys I think I have decided on a color for the wheels. Looks like I'm gonna get 3" lips to replace the 2", and polish them and paint the faces this color. Not sure about bolt color just yet tho....

Well spoke with the powdercoater the other day. He said he's got some pretty cool ideas for them too. I have put them up for sale though just in case someone is interested in them, and would like them to be finished however they want.

[Randomofodication]

where would you get that^ done?

most paint places or powder coaters would be able to do it, you would probably have to special order the paint or flakes is all. hell you can get glow in the dark paint at home depot
