I think they would look really cool (classy).

The only bitch would be trying to clean them!

Did you ever get someone to P/S those wheels??

If you do get them, I know a super easy way to clean them. I have a set on my Civic.

I'm just getting the stock hood and bumper right now. I'm getting the rear bumper repainted (you know, those bumper scratches, etc.).

I'll wait until next spring to go all out on the body. This will give me time over the winter to get good deals on stuff.

My goal is to hit the 13s before winter arrives.

Good luck on the wheels. Do you have a pic?

Photoshop. Weren't you trying to see how they would look before??

This is what you do. Get yourself a real soft paint brush. The size you would use to paint trim in a house.. About 2 inches wide. Also, get some 409.

Spray the wheel with water, then soak it with 409. Then, use the paint brush to get into the hard to reach spots. i.e. nipples and hub. Also, use the brush for pretty much to whole wheel.

Now, to dry them, you can do two things. One, drive the car and dry off what you have to. Or, if you have an air compressor, you can blow air on the wheels to dry them.

It works great on my wheels!!

I am going to think about making fun of you then. J/K I think they should look good, just not my cup of tea.
