Just recently, somebody came up to me outside a gas station and said my wheels look like crap. So, I decided it might not be a bad idea to sand them down and repaint them or polish them. Again.

Getting down to the factory finish.

So, just a quick update for you guys. I'll be refreshing with more photos of the volvo's wheels as they come along. Also, I'll be painting the Subaru's soon too. The gold they're painted looks like baby stuff green/yellow.

I'm now taking ideas for the Volvo's wheels, thinking of mild polish on the metal, or a nice color. No ideas for the Subaru though. Those are going STi pink.

Took someone at a gas station to convince you? Not 17 pages of us telling you your wheels looked like ass???

The lack of man-dress in this thread is thoroughly disappointing.
