    Well, here are some pics of my newly finished wheels. They are painted black, clearcoated, with all imperfections gone. I will be undertaking phase 2 now. Will have it completed by Friday(hopefully)

    Looks great AJ !

    When I was looking into the Gold car that was for sale earlier this year @ Nelson, that was my plan as well............to do the wheels black.

    It compliments the Gold much nicer.

    Nice job.................cool exhaust too !

    Any plans for the wing ? Carbon or black ?

    Whats PH 2 ?

    Talked to Passport Today. They will be picking it up this week......not a firm committed day though.

    Hopefully early next week it will be here in Indiana.

    It will be going into service to change ALL the fluids and go through a 2 HR front to back inspection just for saftey sake.

    This car will be driven!!! Although its only got 1570 miles......I like to play it safe. Very cheap insurance and piece of mind.

    You have the same vision that I did on your 01 SE when I was looking.

    The carbon fiber on the mirrors and wing will pick up the nose and rocker sills quite nicley.

    Black goes well with everything.

    Good luck, and once again thanks for your help on the SV !

    I only have two criteria for wheels....

    1. They should be forged
    2. They HAVE to be black

    Gorgeous man!

    AJ, was the cost of wheel repair/repaint in the $150-175 range?? BTY the wheels look great esp. clear coated!

    Hey Dave. Because of the size of the rear wheels, it was higher than normal. 220 avg per wheel.
