Default Just thought I share a project.

Here's a little project that I'd done in the past with my Blitz 01 2 piece wheels, bought it outta states so I didn't know the real conditions they were in. I'd decided to redo them myself and here's the result so enjoy, I apologize for the cellphone pic which was my only camera at the time. Let me know what u guys/gals think...


Before face/center


After face/center


Before rear, 25% completed


After rear, 90% completed


Before Lip



Left- Untouch/undone, Right- Scuffed/Polished


Before paint


After painted


Threw in lug nuts to see how they look against the face


Finished product
