Sooooo I REDID the M7s AGAIN
<FONT SIZE="3">Finished page 6</FONT>
Gonna be a suprise to some and probably hate from others, oh well. I was finishing assembly to the M7's a little while back and when I was getting the last center cap in, the paint just LIFTED around the whole thing, PISSED!!! I continued to just peel the paint off like it wasn't even attached. Come to find out, the damn wheels were hardly even prepped! Only LIGHTLY sanded them with a 500 grit pad, the wheel was still slick as hell under the paint, I was pretty damn upset at this point. I was REALLY disappointed of what happened, but they say if you want things right to do them yourself. The ONLY reason I sent them out to get done is because I didn't have a booth to spray in and I didn't have any time to do them (I painted my bay and interior myself so it's not that I couldn't do it). Now I just wanted them done so I decided to take it into my own hands. Here's the outcome fellas, ready to go on this week.
Finally got them together, just need to get tires mounted now. Check um out:

They're polished, even each of the 128 screws was hand polished to perfection, there's 50-60 hours in them. I was at the point where I didn't have fingertips left.
