Polished lips...
« on: 18 March 2010, 23:41:54 »

Tried to bring back my wheels to the polished look that they had when they were new...

Not quite perfect but this is the result of 4hrs of sanding and 3hrs of painting the lips...

The white tape on the front bumper is from the lip that is going to go on in the next few weeks.. I remove it for the winter otherwise I risk breaking it!
