Hello Fellow Third Gen Members,
I bought my first third gen this summer and have been painstakingly doing everything I can to make her the best that she can be. I have spent a lot of dough already and I am sure it is well worth it. Well when I bought her she still had the stock rims in pretty bad condition for 23 years old. The first picture I will show you is the way I bought the car minus the wheel center caps. I bought the center caps, the emblems, new trim rings, and redid them myself. What do you think?

 

Here is how they look now.

 

very nice looking!

 

very nice jandle. 100% better

 

Thanks guys.

 

your drum looks good but you gonna paint your drums and calipers too

 

I was reading some articles on that yesterday and I guess that will be my next project, what color would you recommend? I still need a paint job and it is scheduled for next summer, so I hope I am not doing all these improvements right before winter to only have to do them again after paint. Hopefully we will have a mild winter this year

great work!

 

Thank you,

 

black or white would look good.What color you gonna paint your car tho

 

She stays white!!!

 

Id go with painting your drums and calipers black then.It will make your wheels stand out more I think.Ask someone to do a photoshop

You got it, bro.

 

Here are a few shots of how they look on the car.

 

Other side.

Image removed- Please check the rules. Thanks.

 

Car looks awesome, but imho get that bra off of there!

 

I hear you and I wish I could take it off. The people I bought it from never removed it and there is a ugly rust spot underneath it on the hood about the size or an orange. After I get it painted this summer the bra will go in the garbage. Thanks for the compliment.

 

Sweet wheels. Job well done indeed.

 

Man, thats the first time I thought those wheels looked good! You did a nice job resoring those!

 

very impressive job cleaning those up. What size are they? They look like 14"...anyone know the width on them?

 

Hello,
Thanks for the compliments guys, they are infact 14" but I don't know the width of them.
