Sanding them down and buff out the polish followed by wax. Im in need to do the process again but PlastX is a quick solution that doesnt last long.

Suislide, nice progress on your SC. I agree Shern's SC is a true inspiration. He's since changed the interior-search post for Shern. He has his signature that you can click and see his entire build.

On a side note: JJ823, those wheels are PIAA Super Rozza 2 piece. Not sure the offsets anymore. You'll have to contact Shern via PM. PM me, I can send you a link to the wheels if you want to know more information. Pricing, etc.

My motor died today after getting off of work. I'm thinking about buying a beater and saving up for a swap whether it be n/a 2jz or 1-2 gte, part the car out, or buy a beater and save up for a new car under 18k. Lmk know what you think.

edit> I added a poll with multiple choice .
