miko_supra Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Finally got round to spraying the front wheels today and yesterday. Also got the calipers sand blasted and sprayed silver. It was definatly worth the time and effort as i think blue didn't really do anything for the car Heres a before shot... http://xs226.xs.to/xs226/08164/vbpgimage205.jpg And this is what they look like now... Can't put the rear ones on yet as the sub frame is still out. http://xs226.xs.to/xs226/08164/005wheel457.jpg http://xs226.xs.to/xs226/08164/007wheel633.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyT Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Smart. Try source the Supra stickers mate. It'll finish it off nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WrathChild Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Looks awsome! I have very simillar wheels, same make and same colour inside, I would love to do this with my wheels black like yours or red but I wouldn't know where to start. Does anyone know how to refurb the polished rim on these wheels? Mine are curbed and need doing......I was quoted £352 for a full refurb.
