after getting booted from south carolina the other day i had to vent my frustrations, so on the way home i hit the depot and picked up some steel wool, sandpaper, acetone and a bit of "bling in a can". cleaned heavily, sanded chipped areas and scuffed the whole wheel with steel wool, then cleaned again and laid about 5 light coats per wheel. i think the end result is decent for couple hours work.

lol, i believe i ordered blue... but i've been known to not pay attention to details like that when buying crap on ebay ;). it just means that it's time to find matching paint for the valve cover :D.
