Same set up I have. Really fills out the wells nicely and the lips are nice. People don't realize that a set of 16X8 951 Fuchs on the front and a set of 16X9 930 Fuchs on the back is an extremely expensive wheel set up.

You are really "NASTY"

tifosman - yeah true enough the 16X8 16X9 combo is not in anyway low budget.

I try not to think about how deep I am on wheels - I just love em.... and especially polished.
Besides that makes the late offset guys cry

Just an FYI. I'm in the paint business and your statement is 100% correct if he uses a oil-based product. However, for many years now there are exterior water-based brush or spary polyurathanes that are clear and "non-yellowing". There are quite a few companies too, but my concern would be that there aren't meant for vibration. However, it is probably a mute point and wouldn't even matter, for when the film is dry it does have "some" elasticity to it unlike solvent-based ones.

Yep, I'm aware of that (regarding the acrylic poly). I used to be in the industry too, for 13 years. The acrylic poly would definetly be the wrong product for that application, that's why I mentioned the yellowing of the oil based product.

Tifosiman..
Where did you get those brake cooling ducts you have fitted to your car. In place of the front driving lamps....????

Rolex...What you see there I did on a sunday.Probably like 4-5 hrs!!!

Can I ship you mine and you can do them? You are nuts....!!

MrNasty951

Rolex..Let me get mine done I still need to finish the one you see in the pic and still need to do the other one and polish a few other items!! Once I complete them I may be able to hook you up!!

Mine are from OG Racing and came complete with ductwork and some nice fiberglass brake backing plates. However they don't sell the kits anymore.

AIR sells almost the same ducts, but you have to provide your own ductwork and backing plates. You'll need to contact them to order as I don't think they are on their website.

You'll have to work out how you want to mount them on your car, they don't come with any brackets or anything like that. I made some simple L-brackets, one for each side of the duct.

Thanks.. Ill see what i can find....

Maybe I can trade you some xylene for the polishing of my parts!
