What to do when custom wheels are not custom enough

Get some engraved, brushed aluminum center caps to replace the ordinary ZE forged center caps, which never matched the finish of my wheels to begin with.....my obsessive compulsive mind is finally at ease.

It's the little detail mods.that take a" keen- eye" to spot and change.

The difference.....Is usually a dramatic change like your wheel caps!

In other words.....T H E Y R O C K!!!!

Looks great! Looks like you just got done polishing in that one pic. What were you using to polish them?

 

[pitstain]

Thanks guys, I was waiting for a tire shine poke in the eye...LOL

I really appreciate the kind words, this was something that I always missed when I went to aftermarket wheels, so I had to have SVT on my rollers.

Sinister, I used a muslin buffing wheel from sears with some meguiars hot rims polish, it is in a wide jar and is a soft paste so it is easy to get it on the buffing wheel, and the drill is a cheapo companion brand one from sears and hits 2500 rpm max. for hand polishing i use Deep Alume from Chris Nelson at NAPA.

 

[Scuba-Matt]

Those look great.

 

[ChrisNelson]

They look great Ian!! I think it's time we have a group buy on these wheels.

 

[00SVT]

Very Nice touch

 

[FordFanStan]

The wheels look great, center caps as well...

Ian, you need more meat on those wheels, aren't they 20x10's? Go with a 295 at least, my .02 cents... Stan

 

[svtjackal]

looks great Ian,
now how about sending me a set to replace the center caps of my smoothie II's with the crappy Boyd Coddington name engraved on them.
