I have one rim painted and the others are awaiting to be painted once I get my center caps in.

 

I should have cleaned up the tires.

 

Cant wait for the centercaps to come in

 

The car now sits 1 1/2 higher than before.

 

Heres a close up of the one that I painted.

 

thats definately an improvement, although i'm undecided as to whether or not i like them painted.... either way it looks much better...

i think that once you get the tires clean it will look good.those things are filthy,and kinda make it look trashy IMO.but once theyre clean i think it will make them look badass once theyre all painted!

 

Copy cat
I like the color you chose.

 

Looks great, keep up the good work

 

The car is looking good, but I dont like the black on those polished rims. That car is looking too much like mine, of course yours is in better shape. Oh, is there a motor in there yet? It seems to sit a little high, front and rear actually.

Keep up the good work.

 

Yep theres a motor in there, I havent drimven the car since I put the the rims on the car. I jacked the car from the jack locations I guess the shocks need a little driving on them so the will sit back down to their oroginal location. I should have cleaned the tires up before I took the pics but I was running late for work when I finally got the rims on the car so it was a quick couple of pics. The one rim that has the black paint is going to get stripped and I will put some real paint on it this time.

 

85SportCoupeto89RS: Did u follow the same steps as the polishing guide??? I may try this on my Z28 wheels...

 

I was gonna see if you wanted some caps, I have some spares (new ones) left over from my '85 Z28. But you seem to have that covered already. Caps will make those wheels look really good.

 

Sorry Hg, but I do my stuff with professional equipment. IE polishing wheels with a bench grinder, polishing compound, da sander, die grinder with sanding rolls.

 

Looks nice man. Now you're really makin me wish mine were done.
