My Build Thread LS1/FD Its Fast!

scuff em up, prime them, paint them and use a quality clear coat (not cheap shit as it yellows)

:tup: lol

if you’re just trying to see the color, then u can just paint over the old ones to see how you like it
but for final product i would sand them down real good, spray them with an air hose and wipe any grime off them, then hit them with a few coats of primer, the color of paint you want and then clear

i think it will look really good black on black

edit: if you have a hook up you can probably get them powdercoated for probably 50bucks more than rattlecanning them

spam16v?

Anyone have a connection on powdercoat or where I should take them?

talk to my cousin you lazy chooch he has a guy that did his for $200, blasted then coated

had suzukiriderman media blast my bbs for 100 for the set
and had this guy rich who works at du-all (something like that) powdercoat them matte black for 100

if your interested, let me know and i can talk to the guy
he can also do like any color you can imagine
was gonna do this dope candy blue, but decided against it

clarence metal finishing… fred is awesome

Car is just about done. For whatever reason I still am not getting brakes. :frowning: Then I had it out with my neighbor about how noisy I am I guess. So I quit for the day. Different wheels are on because I wanted to test fit the black wheels before I decide what to do color wise. They are hitting the fender when I turn :frowning: I think on a smaller tire it will work though. For now I will rock the chrome ones for a few weeks.

Damn! I reallylike the way both sets of rims look like!!! Maybe chrome more tho… :tup:

Yeah im not sure but the other ones are lighter and wider so that is what will end up on the car. I picked up a charcoal, satin black, and a goldish color paint. I am going to spray each on one and see what I think. Then I am probably going to have them powdercoated the same finish.

chrome looks like shit.

LIAR!

You deff do not want to know what I would want for it.

DEERSKIN!!!

ALL THAT IS MAN!

Its goldish…brown…sparkley…LOL God people will hate me if I rock it.

I want to know more about this neighbor incident! lol

He was pissed about me running the car a bunch(which I have been and im sure it is annoying. I feel bad but its been to diagnose stuff) well anyho the guy was a huge dick and his wife was being a bitch…so I told him ill start the car 100 fucking times and he won’t do shit. :fu:

If anyone is free I want to bleed the brakes again so someone come help me.

I’ll help you bleed the brakes tomarrow my way. Thats open headers with it running outside at 9am. helps to shake all the little air bubbles out trapped in the calipers.

ughh been there and done that with my neighbor. You gotta tell them to stfu or you will donkey punch him and his wife.lol
