sand blasting rims ? is it worth it?

depends how much its gonna cost ya and how bad the alloys are if there terrible and its not too expensive then yeah well worth it but if they aint too bad they would probs be ok with a bit of sand paper

well its the ones i have on atm .. they arnet damaged at all ... would wet and dry take the most of the paint off and

50 for all 4 rims (not including taking tryes off and putting on .. )

unless your wheels are all bubbling and pitted and everything else then theirs no real point in shot blasting, the layers of previous paint add to make it smooth but yea, the best way it just wet and dry it down to take the shine of them and then spray over them, then laquer them, then sand them lightly again, then get your elbow in and polish like a mad man to make them shine should look the dogs dangleys then why what colour are you doing?

was gonna go white and and do centres araden blue (same as car ) well was think tho more likly keep centres off looks well with them off and well if i sand then down do primer then spray white?

ps is it okey to do lazy mans way and not take tryes off )

http://belfast.gumtree.com/belfast/26/63123126.html anyone know what these are? i think i like them but i like the ones i have more ...

i duno what they are mate.

m8 they luck lik eiver tigra alloys or vectra sri alloys tho thur onli 4 stud so ad say tigra nat 2 sure tho

i've never seen a vauxhall with them on m8, i'd say they are just non gen wheels with vauxhall centre caps

never seen them ever, go on google and look through the old cavs, calibras, vectras, stuff like that maybe even older like the mk1/mk2 cavs, carltons,

they aint stock vauxhall wheels . they look to me like old golf wheels? email the guy and ask him does it say ''gm'' anywer on the back.

they were sold tho no worrys might be getting cav slabs in the morning

i was like a kid at christmas when i seen them my gf thought i was friggin nuts ...

woohoo just got the slabs!!

woke up at 6 am drove till 7 in got them

very good but need new tryes ...

and a lick of paint

grey or else white not sure yet ...



cavs in boot of car

just got a boot spoiler

never been fitted

which has me wondering how do u fit it ..

ps shud therebs a square of plastic missing from it guy said its for the water thing on window but i reckon its too big ..

and i needa buy anything for mounting the spoiler ? some1 said i need a mounting plate or something any help?
(pictures when i get time )

the rear spoiler should be in two pieces, the rubbery plastic spoiler itself and then a hard plastic sort of under garment that goes under the spoiler at the top which the water jet goes into. then people have just boned them on, or you can drill holes etc
