Before and After
So I finally picked a new set of wheels I've been wanting, as you guys may or may not know. I picked them up from Kinetic last week (who originally got them xeuxx).
Although my car has smooth-bald tires at the moment, I refused to put a set of silver wheels on my s2000. Which is why I haven't been driving the s2000 lately, due to the severe baldness of my tires.
So I repainted them, and just thought I'd share with you folks.
Before:
After:
Closeup:
$47 to repaint them, which included: 3" wire cup brush (as a drill bit), sandpaper, acetone, primer, paint. Took 5 hours total (the wire cup brush for the drill really helped things move quickly). Now they just need to set and finally I'll have a set of wheels for track (my r888) and one for DD (bfg g-force sports, or something comparable). The only thing left of my list is to upgrade those widths from 205 and 225 up to 225 and 245.
