Yes I will post pictures tomorrow after we get them on the car and give her a wash haha. Pictures of new exhaust too! Save a lot of $$ that way. These will ultimately be my winter wheels.

nice, looks like a good job.

just a thought tho, are you going to respray if/when you decide to rebalance the wheels, unless you want markings of the weights still in the oem shade.

Very nice. I have the same design on my SC400, but they're chrome, and the chrome is starting to pit/peel off. The rim itself is actually starting to rust and leak air.
