Wow I'm traditionally a lip hater but those look really amazing, jealous!

Props on the sanding too I spent last week polishing my headlights which was 'only' 10 hours and that was a lot of work!

 

Test fitted one

Yay or nay on the color. It looks better than I thought with the gold







Also, I recently bought one of these since I refuse to use the emergency jack to raise the car

 

My vote is for a gunmetal/titanium center, not feeling the gold.

Is the rear bumper a MTech with a carbon diffuser? Might mate up well with that too....

 

first let me say you did an amazing job on restoring the wheels. second, i absolutely LOVE the gold centers.


but alas, the gold on the silver is a big no no from me. i would break the wheels down and have the centers sandblasted to remove the paint then polished like the lips or machined for a cool new look. OR consider a vinyl wrap on your car to really mix things up.

 

I'm thinking the same. The diffuser is matte black

Thanks man. Restoring aluminum wheels is very easy, just time consuming. Also, the paint is chipping a bit on the wheels so getting them redone has to happen anyway. I'm still working on figuring out the finish I want. I like vinyl, but I won't be wrapping anything *yet*. I'm not sure if that idea will come up or not in the near future.

 

The gold looks sick

 

I like the gold.

Phenomenal job!!! I might be PMing you when the weather is nice so I can fix a little curbage on one of my rims. You plan on painting your rims yourself or powder coating professionally?

 

very nice!
