I have some hx's that were given to me and I want to use them. Problem is 3 of the centers have the shit curbed out of them, the lips are all fine. Anyone used something like bondo to do this? I'm tired of these shitty looking steelies.

Hey, I bet you that the process would've been a lot easier had the guy removed the wheel from the car.

It's not like you can paint something laying down with a rattle can so the wheel would have to be sitting upright just like it was still on the car anyways.

Lol, but there was a step where he had to mask off the whole car because he was afraid of overspray.
