.....well sorta.

as some of you know my L wheels (which are the 18" chrome replicas) were in pretty rough shape...the chrome was literally peeling off of them.

Well thanks to neil (EOC) i finally got some tires that are road worthy put on them, and i decided to give them a little makeover.

Started with this


Started going to town with one of these and a razor blade


Gettin there


Thats sharp!


Inside done


Sanded the crap out of the face


NICE!






all said and done...i have about 3 hours in each wheel...not including painting

idk if i want to paint my other set of centercaps black or not tho...im kinda digging the cop wheels look lol

oh also i have SVT coils in these pics w/ half a coil cut...dont really think it dropped me any more than my other springs tho...that will soon change

Huge thanks goes out to my buddy neil, without his help my truck wouldnt look this good right now!

 

nice your truck is coming along very nicely
i would say leave the caps the way they are

 

i agree, the caps look cool. your truck looks awesome. great job on the prep and paint.

 

That looks great you should keep the caps like that looks awesome.

 

Very nicely done, and another vote for keeping the caps the way they are.

 

Sweet! Looks good. What kinda paint did you use?

 

looks good man keep the caps the way they are

 

I love mods that drastically change the truck for the better without spending much money, looks awesome and I like the caps the way they are now. good job.

 

looks great man. i love the look of those wheels in black and the cop look really works

 

Good job, that turned out very nice.

 

thanks for the compliments guys! im really happy with the way it came out! the paint is really 98% perfect

rustoleum 'performance' wheel paint. 2 thick coats of flat black and 2 thick coats of clear. the paint on the wheels look better than the paint on my truck lol


oh and i guess im keeping the caps chrome. everyone seems to like it that way

 

looks great

 

Looks really good, man my hands always look like that too, when i'm working on my truck too

 

Looks good. Nice work.

 

great job!
