The paint on the doors is usually not a problem....just some good rubbing compound and wax. The new mirrors will need paint though.

Andrew . . . Very clean & shows pride of ownership. The new wheels set it off nicely! Nice Job!

I have seat switches & a stereo install to do on the 88 today. Gotta love those clean wheel wells.

RedUFO:

ErnstSW hooked me up BIG TIME!

All 4 corners including rubber (tires are practically new!) for less than $700. I needed new tires, so if I figure $500 for tires, I paid about $200 for the wheels. Killer deal!

Red UFO,
I bought them on eBay, was GIVEN a set by T_Max, and sold them to Andrew at a small loss. The moral of the story is to haunt eBay for a set of wheels until you find some.

Ya, I know!

It's very tempting, not 100% on if I want chrome is my old hold up. I thought he had winter tires on that set?

Plus its about X-mass and for once I have to stop spending money on myself. After X-mass I'll be game.

I do have a set in chrome, but the chrome is not in good shape. The tires are brand new Dunlop winter sports. Seeing all this generousity makes me feel... well, like I have to be generous. j/k
I will sell my set for $500 +ship if someone wants them. Check out the link on my signature to have a better look at them.
