Being that I'm on a budget (stupid new house needing an electrical facelift), I decided to take the peeling, corroding, and displeasing to the eye stock wheel covers and gave them a little face-lift. Loving the darker metallic grey on it and saved me at least $70.

Thanks! The color is actually really sweet looking. If I had the money I would do the whole car that exact color.

Thanks man. That's probably all I'm ever going to do to it. Saving up for a project car next year. Most likely going to get a fresh Foxbody shell and drop a boosted 351 in it.

Nice job. Who said you have to have a pro, when you've got determination?

Looks great.

How did you prep it, and what kind of paint did you use?
