did you sand the lips down at all? i think a lil sanding would make them that much better. but still looks great bro

honestly i could smooth it out some more, but i really didnt feel like it.. sanding is hard work as is, expecially by hand.. id perfect them if they were mine, but they not and i doubt i will get wat my time is worth for them...

i did hit it with 2k, those marks were deep as ****.. to get to the heart of those marks and get them gone, id need to go back to about 800 dry sanding..

lookin good

so is that just the top of a bolt on the face? looks like the same fasteners they use on my wheels, and i was curious if you had to do anything special to get them apart

thanks everyone,

probably are the same fasteners because they generally use the same 12point bolts on all 2-3 piece wheels.. i am yet to get the face out of those, from what SupraCoupe was telling me those GR-Cs are welded in the back but are a two piece wheel.. BBS 3 piece wheels i know come apart just by taking out the fasteners.. I am not sure about you wheel though, if they are a 2 or three piece wheel just taking out the fasteners on beating the wheel with a rubber hammer you should be about to separate them..
