it doesnt show in the pictures but there is a lot of chrome pitting in the inner wheel. to have them re-chrome plated will cost a lot of $$$$ but powdercoating will cost only about $75 a wheel.

Car looks a lot better. Those wheels were horrible, I just about bought some Rebels too. Then had some factory wheels just about bought before I sold it. And the guy I sold it to fucked it up. The lights and brakes werent like that when I had it. Your doing a lot of the stuff I wanted to do but just didnt have the time to do.
Enjoy in good health!

You did a very good job, sir! I never have liked the rebel wheels on any car. Maybe with a powder coat, they might look decent. Car itself looks nice though.

the wheels are getting powder coated flat black, i am waiting on sometime in the spring tho. i am pulling the motor and trans, the motor is getting a set of ls6 heads and a larger cam (probably MS3) and the trans is getting all new bearings and bs. so after im done dropping all that money on that suff the wheels will be next.
