I'm using 80 grit to sand them all back by hand to get all the corrosion off. Then will use high build primer and sand that back to a 2000 grit then the colour wich I havnt decided wich gold to use yet then a stupid amount of coats of clear to give it a really deep shine.

And yes th ate from a seat taledo. Wheels cost me £25.
Not sure if I will need spacers on the front yet for caliper clearance but will deal with that once icmv finnished them.
