I haven't polished mine since I put my car back on the road a month or so ago... Maybe it's the polish you're using? do they still have the clear coat on them?

 

I don't know. It's a Mothers mag and aluminum polish, so I'm not sure if it's very good. First time I used it on rims. How would I know if the clear coat is still on them?

I'm not sure how to tell if the clear is on if it's 100% intact... mine's still slightly there in some places... lol

 

And the Mag and Aruminum porish is pretty good.... I used it on this Enkei 92 for like 20 mins after I hit it with some 2000 grit sand paper:

Also took the paint and chrome off the bumper and polished the metal. Then cleared it to see what it'd do.

Opinions?

Got the Mazda dash parts out and started looking into mounting options. Any ideas guys? Any help would be appreciated.

More updates in the "Sponsored" thread cool.gif

 

I'll be moving all those updates over here as soon as I start the paint process in a few weeks. It's gonna take me a while to figure out how to get a paint booth set up without attracting attention from code enforcement/neighborhood covenant.
