nice, you can really see the difference on the black plastic, i mean you can see it on the other parts but the black part really shines compared to the other one.

Those are awesome! I was thinking about getting an extra set and trying to polish those up for my IROC. What all did you do? Ive read up on the on polishing rims, but Im still looking for a set of 88-90 IROC rims to practice on, so I cant say I know what im doing lol. Again, those look sweet man.
