    we tried that chrome paint... imo it sucks, didnt stick to well and wasnt as chromeish ad we expected. he may just polish them.. we have our ways that make it much less laborious

    That's a terrible job. The wheel might of looked better if it was done properly, but that just looks horrible. Polished would be the way to go

    FUCK GRAN TURISMO EAST!! NEVER TAKE YOUR CAR THERE, ESPECIALLY NOT FOR AN ALIGNMENT!! TERRIBLE BUSINESS!!
