Yes frickin metal louvers. Lol when the car gets its paint job, im thinking about matching the louvers with the same paint as the rest of the car. That means metal flake and all. It just depends though, I have a feeling the paint is gonna be LOUD and very sparkly, so it may be too tacky to match it. Time will tell...
Btw, can't wait til some seats like this are in the car. Need my roll cage hoop too. The roll cage will definitely be painted the same color as the exterior of the carLast edited by C greens; 09-13-2018, 03:54 PM.

Also the interior in the Celica supras is made for someone about 5'2" max. So tiny. Momo interior bits make them cool from the factory tho. I know where there's a silver one that's been sitting a few years now...2 328i e36's

Did some light restoration on one the Yokohamas to test some products out. I didn't get any pictures of when they were bare, but here's a before, when it was primed, and final product picture. I'm still gonna sand and polish the lip, and buy new hardware. I think it looks pretty good! The paint I got was almost an exact match of the stock paint on the wheels.

Yes it's in a rattle can. Just make sure you prep the wheel properly and it will hold up fine as long as you don't use a very harsh chemical to clean them with. You can also clear over it to make it more resistant to weather/chemicals.

I live in a place where powder coating. Is crazy expensive. I don't really want to spray them but I know it can come out very well with the right prep work.2 328i e36's

Sorry for the lack of updates, have to take care of a few financial things before continuing on with the Z build. I’m hoping to get some real work done this winter. I’ve moved it underneath my car port so it is out of the elements more and I can get in there and work on it without being cramped.
