Gallows Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 Getting the wheels refinished or selling them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95riosnake Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 I know it would probably cost a left nut and your first born, but I would LOVE to see those RK's in black chrome. Might as well have the body shop mold a kleenex holder on the quarter panel at that point though, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Det_Riot Posted June 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 Well time to pray to the car gods. Dropped my wheels off today. Turns out they do refinish them there, they send em out :/ shittiest thing about it, sometimes its only two weeks (yayyy) sometimes its three weeks (boooo) so basically if I don't get my wheels back in 3 Fridays, I won't have my rks for mustang week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SVTurbo 98 Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 Are you getting the same finish put on them? Why not take them to a powder coating place and have them blasted and powder'd there instead of sending them off? I would be worried about getting them back in time...Btw we need more progress pics, sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Det_Riot Posted June 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 Not a huge update, connectors will be here tomorrow to do my cluster quick disconnect instead of having a bajillion different connectors all around. That should be simple wiring. Car is receiving or has received color already, haven't gotten any updates but it looked like it was totally prepped around 6 tonight!Once its in my possession its crunch time!

Something I've picked up from the BMW/Euro crowd is the disdain for extra emblems, so I am thinking of shaving the GTs off the side, the Ford oval off the trunk, and filling in the MUSTANG GT in the bumper (it's not symmetrical and it kills me lol)... just the horse in the grill will be left.

I did have him shave the rear ford emblem. Was going to have him fill in the bumper too but he wasn't real comfortable that it'd hold up so I didn't wanna take that chance. I know its possible but whatever, I need winter projects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
