Rims Black Night Metallic, Restore Black Bumper Bondo

[jesteratc]

So a few days ago i picked up these from FlowmasterFestiva



Along with these, but thats in a little bit.





I was very pleased
But not pleased enough. There was a bit of Gutter rash, curbage, and what not so my friend mike and i went over them. Sanded them, filled the deep gouges, primered, then painted them.

Heres the after.





So after the paint drys, ill be going from these.


to these


They will probably be on by Monday, assuming the weather is good. Also i painted the center caps, but haven't taken the tap off yet.




Then, since i was in a working mood i did this. I purchased this on Amazon a while back, finally got around to doing it.

Nice job on the wheels man! Color choice is EPIC!

[blacklabels]

Looks really good! Good job sir!

[mintFestiva]

Looks great!
Real quick, what are the specs on the tires and wheels?
I'm looking into upgrading to low profile tires without increasing/decreasing my overall wheel diameter. Looks like you found a combination that would work.

that restore black stuff doesnt last to long it will fade again. When it does buy a can of krylon fusion spray paint.

After putting that goo on for the bumpers I came to the same conclusion. So probably next year near the end of winter they will be taken off and painted.

The rims overall dia is just about spot on for the stock rims. Im happy I wont need to adjust my speedo.

I was considering buying those struts and springs. Glad they are being put to goo use. The wheels look nice all painted up. The restore black seemed to work a little better on the front bumper.

Will you be removing the pink stripe as well? If so, this will help! You might be able to find it cheaper, but I know a few members who have used it to take the pinstriping off their cars, and it works well.

Id like to remove the Pink and White stripes. I believe it will clean up the side of the car nicely. I tried removing them a while back, but it didn't go so well. There stuck on there pretty well.

No Photobucket joy! Is anyone seeing the pics now?

FWIW, I'm pretty happy with the Restore Black I used about a year and a half ago.
