A pic for Wodj.

[shaun1978]

Heres one of the wheels after being shotblasted , powdercoated in a black base and the first layer of laquer with the holographic flakes in , not very good quality because it was taken with my phone....., but after another 6 coats of laquer they now look brill (in my eyes) will get some better ones up soon when the cars back....

Dang


Can't view it at work

[bradc]

thats very shiney! Needs to be a better quality pic though!

[shaun1978]

hmmm that pic looks particularly crap tbh nothing like a true representation, especially when everyone at work went WOW! lol

Edit: Lesson for today - must try harder, take pics with a decent camera

Looks great !! How did you powder coat with tyres on ?

[Beastlee]

Can't see it at work here either. Comeon folks put your pics in somewhere big companies don't block!

[shaun1978]

Looks great !! How did you powder coat with tyres on ?

I didnt! I put the tyres back on and masked up so that I didn't run the risk of damaging the newly sprayed laquer when using the tyre machine , the inner surfaces dont need laquering and at 80 quid a litre it would be a waste.

Well they are finished now but i still havent took any with a decent camera , they are a bit bling but this was more of an experiment than anything else...

[psbarham]

[MarkSanne]

PMSL

Incidentally I'm very surprised he hadn't done something with the wheels!

[pitslayer]

hmmmm not for me personally, will wait to pass full judgement when you get better pics

[shaun1978]

hopefully they will be at japfest !!

[Wodjno]

sorry shaun.. buut not for me either ...
What made these wheels always turn heads was the polished rim
it use to look like a ring of fire at night in the light of street lights..
As long your happy thoug that's all that matters

[shaun1978]

tbh wodj the only way to bring that back up would have been to chuck it in the cnc and skim it and for me I may as well and gone and bought some than faffing about tooling that up. they look totally different from the photos , but as I said they are abit bling for me so when i get time i may have another go at them.
