So in the mean time I started the wheel rebuild saga..Broke 1 of the bolt heads off, stripped 8 but was lucky enough to get them out. I think this is the first time they got some love in 9 years and trust me they need it. So I got them all split apart and bead blasted the back barrels and dropped them off to get powder coated black. The centers and the lips I'm still thinking of what to do with them. I heard there is a good chrome shop called pine rivers Electroplating?(anyone herd of them?) or I may do the wheels all matt black but im still not sure-any ideas? Im looking at getting all new hardware now
I recon got a matte black with gold bolts (or chromed bolts) for the wheels... Or is that too much
good to see the turbo build is nearly done!
