I've got a set of LS mesh wheels and I want to paint them. I've already searched and I know the basic steps, but what i wanna know is how do i clean up curb rash. They apparrently had a few run ins with the curb but i got them for $100 so i'm not complaining. Also does anyone know where I can find paint that is the same color Bronze that the do the rotas in. You know that dirty bronze look. thanx for the help

 

bump: no help from anyone???????

Thank you!

Damn you people and painting your wheels. Spend some money and buy wheels the color you want. Or do what you want. Not our car.

 

u need to sand them to get rid of crub rash. it may take a while if u got alot of rash. dont paint them bronze cause it will be ugly. i saw a set that where gm w/ polished lip and they loooked great.

 

alright then forget i ever posted this u guys were completley useless. All except picman. I didn't ask u guys if you liked what i was doing i asked how to fix curb rash and if anyone knew the color i was looking for. If you don't know SHUTUP!!
