My Rim Restoration Project

[Ahzlon]

Hey all over the past few weeks I have been restoring an old set of 6 spoke 2000 Impreza RS rims. Here is my progress from start to finish.

Here is a couple of shots on the condition of the rims before I started my project.

Now a few shots of paint removal in progress.

Now for a sanding to smooth things down and get rid of the rest of the unhappyness on the rims.



Look, I'm a redneck. I have car parts in my bathtub.

Looks good. Sometimes I wish I had kept the set of those I had. As it is, I've got sets of '11 and '06 WRX wheels, plus the stockers.

I really like how they turned out ! Love the color as well
