restored coupe 18''s
 

hey everyone im new to this..last week some guy sold me his coupe 18''s for $200 bt 2 front rims bad condition and i had to try to restore them how u guys think they came out.i attached pics how rims were before and after..

need some better pics to tell.

there some new pics just took them from camera the last pic was rims before

Not bad, looks like you got new rotors as well.

thankx just got rotors resurfaced

Post up some side shots from more of a distance. What kind of paint did you use?

i used dupli-color wheel paint silver...first sand them down then added bondo to curb rash and damage parts sand it down again after primered them good then added dupli-color paint after wet sand a bit rough parts then let them dry for 1 hour and finished it off with clear coat...take better side pic tommorow during the day this one from my phone it sucks...

Good job :biggthumpup:

thankx took me about 2 days was first time doing this so took my time:icon38:

I would have used gun metal or bronze, the silver looks kinda like primer.

+1 for gunmetal.

Good job by the way.

+2 for gunmeta, might of well picked a nice finish since you were painting them but good job nonetheless, I'm glad the wheels found an owner that treats em right.

thankx

thankx..ya the 2 front rims were horrible, bt all 4 tires good tires,rear rims perfect condition,ya the guy who i bought them from had a coupe and had some aftermarket wheels on his coupe 20''s were horrible 2 front ones all damaged lip all curb rashed also tires had chips were way worse then the 18''s he sold me.
