Default Check out these special edition Dronells!

In prep for Hot Import Nights this coming weekend, I decided to get my shoes shined. I just needed something different so I went with the gunmetal look and had the wheels polished from the lip all the way to the back.

Besides, I had to do something different so I could keep up with the Nor Cal crew!!







Polished all the way thru the wheel! :

oh my god man, that is just plain old S-I-C-K. For some reason, your gunmetal is not too dark so with the polished lip, it plays off the alpine silver PERFECT.

I have to give it to you, you get an A for originality. Good job

Default hey!

Thats awsome!
Can you post the name and adress of the shop that did this for you.

I'm in SF and would love to get my shoes polished back to their original glory.

Thanks
Alex

Thanks guys for all of the feedback - much appreciated. It was a gamble, but I think the color turned out awesome and gives the car more of an aggressive look. The work was done by Wheel Techniques in Santa Clara, Ca. They do some amazing stuff and I highly recommend them!

Agreed! Got to check Synergy's car out last night as the Norcal crew was getting ready for HIN. You guys are leaving me behind -- I'll have to do something about that.
