soo i bought some wheels off a fellow fitfreaker and thought i was going to make them look fabulous again. so today i thought to myself, "damn yo, i need to get the steppin on these wheels..." so i went out to got my some paint stripper, sand paper, brush, acetone, and a good 6pack of Sapporo(optional). and started to strip one wheel. took me couple hours cause i like to pay attention to detail...
"Before*

*After*

once i get all 4 done, ima get them sand blasted. the sad part is...i still cant figure out what color to paint them after 3 hours and 6 beers later...LOL
didnt have enough time to do another one cause i was busy running erands for the fam. but i think is turned out nicely. dont you? well 3 more to go...hopefully i'll get the rest done tomorrow...HOPEFULLY! lol
i got more stuff but its a secret...hehehe

rofls!! those slips arnt even HALF way done yet! i bought the sand paper to sand out some of the chips...i still gotta fill in all the deep chips/blemishes with clear nail polish and sand them down. then take them in for a good sand blasting while im doing that ima think of a good color to paint them.

if you don't mind me asking, how much did you get the slips for? dela and i were looking into buying from this guy who's offering $320 with tires mounted and balanced and we were trying to find out if that were a good deal

I wish I was little bit taller,
I wish I was a baller,
I wish I had a girl who looked good
I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
and a six four Impala

those were actually quite nice to install. the only thing needed to be done was open up the holes on the front struts...that took all of about 10 minutes to do.
