Welcome! Nice car, is that a Zender spoiler you've got on it?

Very nice car, and welcome to the board. Cool spoiler.

May as well get your feet wet.

Thanks for the compliments. The car is in a good condition.
I placed the wheels a few months ago. They are from RIAL. It was a heavy job to get them like this. I polisched them on this selfmade tool;

So it looks like you used a drill press to drive it...what did you mount the wheel itself on, and what did you use as the "belt"? Very cool idea, BTW! And the results are stunning!

If I could have my spiderwebs polish up like that, I never would have painted them! Those look sweet! Nice looking ride, very clean. Got any pics under the hood?

Yeah, I don't think the Spider Webs will polish up like that because the lips aren't machined. You'd have to machine the lips first and then polish them. I recently acquired a very sweet set of Rials (for the UWB) that have a similar look to those wheels, and the lips are machined. I'd love to get them polished up like that, and then paint the centers to match my color scheme. Guess I better go buy a drill press, eh?!
