  1. SOLD....I am the new owner of this baby. I get to pick it up this weekend.
  2. Just a couple of things to ad that arent specific to this but good advice: If you dont have experience with power tools...i.e a DA (dual action) sander PLEASE practice on something that you can ruin before putting it on your rims. Aluminium as we all know is soft and it wont take very long to screw it up with a electric/pnuematic sander...if you are unsure of your abilities then do it by hand. You will save yourself a lot of heartache and may build a little muscle along the way. the other tip is along the same lines but with your buffer...Use it a few times and get the feel of it. We stay away from any of the wool pads and only use foam...however one of the wool pads may need to be used here with all of the edges on the rims. Different cutting compounds may reduce the amount of sanding that needs to be done too but that would reveal itself all on its own...might have to be careful with that approach because it could round your edges a little more than you want. be very careful with the dremel....too high of a speed = no polishing compound and nice discolored spots due to heat. Dont be afraid to wet your work area...we keep spray bottles full of water just to mist the area we are working on...it works really nice.
  3. Hey I know this is in the wrong place but wanted people to be able to take advantage of it. I just got a carfax and did it for 30 days...if anyone wants one let me know and I will run it and email you the results. If the mods feel like removing it no big deal but I posted this in another forum too. I just feel a lot better having done it. I started getting a little scared because someone emailed me and said the car I am supposed to buy was a scam and it was on ebay months ago. The carfax was clean though. anyway get a hold of me and I will hook you up. Brant
  4. Kreal, I'm pplanning on buying this car next weekend and will be going through Ohio bringing it back to Illinois...What do you want for the parts? Brant
  5. I sent you a pm...is it still for sale?
