Wheel Restoration Teaser

Stay tuned to see me fix my wheels next week. Nothing too amazing but at least some sexy picture of final product.

Before:

 After:

3rd Annual Euro Car Show (Bloomington-Normal, IL)

I guess I have not much to say but share these pictures with you. I must add that each year we have a bigger turn out and look forward to seeing new cars and drivers come as they see others go as well. Some sort of market network effect lesson in here....

Wheels are Off.

My bolts came in for me to finally fix up my Style 5's to their previous luster; looking forward to refinishing my wheels and making my car purty again...

As she sits for now...

A wise person avoids cheap, eBay-restored wheels despite their claimed nickel-plated hardware...last time I checked, nickel doesn't rust.

Incoming Parts

I originally intended to use this blog, though for a class, as a way of documenting my work on my car. This would have been a great idea had I the opportunity to work on my car but given my two majors and work, I have been rather busy.

Regardless I have finally ordered the necessary parts to start refurbishing my Style 5's to their prior glory. I foresee it being more work than I might like, but they deserve it. Everyone harks on the beauty of BBS RS's and few know of their close cousin.

I will need to switch out my wheels temporarily while I take the RC090s apart, fix a bend, polish the dishes and replace all the hardware. Sorry for the boring update but I think good things are to come as I get shut in for the coming Winter and need to find new entertainment.

While I may not wish to copy every other build, I recognize what I could do and hope to do. Time will tell.

(The Potential is there)
