You tease. Clean the wheels and refinish the fog lights with some sand paper. :wink:

I could always paint the foglight casings yellow :grin:

My wife got me a $20 kit for restoring headlights from Wal-Mart today. We applied it to the headlights today. Actually restored the headlights significantly (probably not as much as with a DIY job where you completely unhook the headlights and have at it) but the tools were all there:

* two types of sanding paper
* cleaning solution
* polishing chemical
* wipes

The results were definitely satisfactory for me, especially at 20 bucks.

And yeah, I am thinking more and more about painting my mesh wheels body color (or at least painting the mesh walls green, like the style on the mesh wheels on the gt limited).

EDIT: I finally understood what you said earlier. What's a real good wheel cleaner and tire polish brand you like?

[Plays_with_Toys]

Oh I don't know of good cleaners. I use the strong stuff to clean anything that gets real dirty (I'm talking greased lightning and simple green) though both are not the best for leaving a polished up finish. There are plenty of wheel cleaners out there though.

Looking pretty sweet too! Those pics you have are real teasers though... we need to see the whole thing! I say definetely paint the inside mesh on your wheels green, that would be sweet! Or, gold would also look nice. I have always been a fan of green/gold. Keep up the nice work!

On my way to Altoona PA, me and my DURRRRRTY car this weekend to go catch the Newsboys in concert (http://www.newsboys.com):

Are your wheels gold or is that just a strange lighting side effect of the camera? Looks good by the way, that car is sparkly clean compared to my car right now, lol. Damn salted roads.

[ryu_haneda]

The wheels are actually not gold... I'm guessing the camera caught the light and it caught in the alloys. I'll probably be spraying my alloys glossy black in the spring (...although green on gold is still not letting go of me).

Thanks for the compliment! Looking forward to spring for projects.
