So I got some wheels the I bought like about a year ago and just recently finished them off. Lots of time and labor work, and when I say that I'm really talking literally. Custom face that I been wanting to do and came out really good and had to fix the barrells by fixing the rashed lips and repolished them my self. Here are the pics.
When I first got them


Stripped them

Polishing the barrels

Finished faces

fantastic work. I don't know how these rims originally look, the lip came out flawless but the face looks to have a rough texture, is that how they're supposed to be?
Can't wait to see them installed

I know the look you were going for.
I think you did a pretty good job cleaning them up nicely.

I wouldn't say it was easy cause it took awhile for me to finish the faces. Also the pictures don't do the wheels justice, you have to really see them in person to see how the effect really is(looks). I used only half the bar. Thanks for the compliment.
