Refinished Wheels

Have you done so much to the car today that it just doesn't fit into one section, or are you too damn lazy to split it all up? Either way, this is the section for you.

Refinished Wheels

Post by Tuna Salad »

Finally finished up my winter project last weekend. I polished the lips and center caps of my Porsche Twists and painted the centers gun metal. It came out great for a DIY job as far as I'm concerned and they look a hell of alot better than they did with the gold paint. Let me know what you think :thumbup:

Nice job! Let us know how they hold up. Wheel paint seems to be really vulnerable to chipping and flaking.
