    What are my options for my pony wheels?

    Dupli color wheel paint the silver with metallic, and sprayed lots of clear, gotta buff them out because theres some overspray build up and the clear isnt as smooth as it could be.

    Tell me what you think

    Nice car, 4 eyes is an acquired taste but man those cars are sexy when they are done right.

    What are my options for my pony wheels?

    I also looked at it this way, I can always strip that paint off and repolish them because I just scuffed the polished surface, which can always be returned. But most likely I will have them blasted and powder coated the same color as factory or maybe a bit darker. I actually like the painted...

    What are my options for my pony wheels?

    foureyed those wheels look amazing! I caved, I'm too lazy to try to sand and polish the wheels out and a couple of them have some good gouges, so I said piss on it and painted them, one side anyways! Painted side: Unpainted side: Some pics of the wheels:

    90stang5speed Rear Mounted Turbo Project Thread

    Come on man its called plane of rotation, oh nevermind thats a jet engine...... I agree and even if an impeller wheel decides to eat **** I doubt it will do through the housing, I have seen some turbo diesel engines that send pieces out the tailpipe but thats a bit different.

    90stang5speed Rear Mounted Turbo Project Thread

    The concept behind this wouldnt be my first pick, but I do have to hand it to you on being able to think it up and put it into action, to not just talk about it but actually fabricate things. Its different and I'm sure will work well, my only thing of why I wouldnt do it is because there are...

    FOXBODY GRILLE DELETE PICS

    That car is amazing! Yeah I agree, but I cant see a relation between a tall cowl on a fat tired stang and a donked out notch. One is an obvious fail whereas the other is just personal preference I like lx tails on a fox, only reason I didnt get them was because i wanted to give the cobras a...

    What are my options for my pony wheels?

    Here are some more not so great quality pics of the progress..... Let me just say this I wish I wouldnt have even started this now! Everything was all fine and dandy until I striped the paint off and underneath is a pitted texture, looks almost like the whole wheel would have been like this...

    What do y'all think of flat black notches?

    I think primer is a good alternative to a crappy paint job especially if your in the process of doing body work and finishing it..... primer is not good for a long period of time though, it is highly absorbant, hence why it is used as a base layer. Just dont be one of those people that sprays...

    Black Interior ?

    Yeah you can plug it with some of the interior trim plugs, should be simple enough. Did you end up just buying all black pieces or are you painting some?

    should it be faster?

    I can get my 88 with an AOD to grab 2nd and sling it slideways if I get into it good enough with just few bolt-ons.

    Everclear.......ALCOHOL!

    I had an interesting night with that and a bottle of "Diesel Fuel" I guess they stopped making that stuff. That was the only time I've experienced alcohol poisoning.

    Purely Speculation/Musing

    What are my options for my pony wheels?

    Yeah my hood paint if flaking pretty bad, I'm not too worried I'm going to buy another hood soon. I'm thinking about getting some paint stripper and getting the black off the wheels and polishing them out. That is if they arent chrome. I'll have to give em a shot because I would much rather...

    What are my options for my pony wheels?

    Yeah I thought they looked polished too.... I've tried to hit them with the power ball and it didnt affect them in the least bit. Well if they are in fact polished I know I can hit them with some high grit paper and get rid of the black and the build up on them, but then they wont match the...

    What are my options for my pony wheels?

    I did some searching but most of the threads are too old to have any pictures. I had planned on just buying new wheels and tires when I got back from the desert in Nov but plans changed and money is going into a different direction so I'm probably gonna stay with these wheels since they have...
