Gonna rig somthing up so I can spin em to get the polished edge a bit better takes ages by hand

solosteve 26 May 2007 10:04 PM

looks ok i guess,
when i looked into doing mine
a local place told me if i was going to spray
the whole rim to save masking use a pack of
playing cards around the wheel rim and tyre..

good idea i think
