It's Alive!!!! 2 (with pics)

Just washed it...

Bearings are on their way... once they're in... VROOM.

Progress.

Again, thanks to all for the advice.

BTW, Where can I order Wurth Wheel paint? Pelican carries Wurth, but they don't explicitly say 'Wheel paint'... Might as well repaint those bad boys while they're off for the bearing refurb...

Ask and ye shall recieve.

The yellow bottle contains merely water. Not green stuff. So don't start with me, OK?

Thaddeus,

Nice job. Your car looks great. What did you use for wax?

Dont paint the wheels. Do it right. Find a good polish shop and have them buffed. Once shiny they arent that hard to keep that way at all.

These are my old slots
