I didnt get that good a finish

it took me an age to polish the fake center nut aswell, and i need to find the original center badges and they are hard to find.

I think they looked better before, showed the style/design of the wheel more, sorry

But they were a bugger to clean

I may take the front of the spokes off but not for a while, i have extreame adha and preping/painting wheels is not my thing

It looks a good job though

I wouldn't have the patience to do it, pay someone else to do it instead

i didnt have the patience , i have three more to do

On another note does anyone know anything about these wheels?
Only info i got is they are msw and were on the rare mazda mx5 le200.

HAHA same here, did one can't be fooked to do the rest. so now this is my spare wheel.

I polished the lips and sprayed the centres rover storm grey (metallic and looks amazing)

That one wheel took forever to do and just wasn't worth the small price that dips charges and his work is second to none

[capnmchl]

Looks like a nice job

but...

black is the dirge of wheels.

They looked better before.

It's when you attempt this sort of thing and even just sand down half a wheel or polish a rim, never mind finishing a whole wheel and end up with an "ok" finish , that paying someone 50 or 60 per wheel for a proper finish, a bargain

if the car was mint maybe, but its just a little project till i get enough of my finances together to buy me a chromie convertable

This is what they came off as far as i can gather.

I didnt I just really fine sanded the outside rim and polished the poo out of it and sanded the inside of the wheel even then etch primered and 6 coats of black,

I do have a home made sandblaster i made out of an old paint gun i use for stripping
