My New Rims! (Pictures Inside)
Well this weekend I met up with violent31601 and got the rims
![]() My dad had some "brilliant" ideas.. We decided to leave it jacked up over night memorial day to take the tires to go get taken off my rims and put on the new ones.. After we had the back on jack stands we did the front, then we realized the jackstands were about to tip... and LOL, we put some ford bronco rims that we had in the garage on it, not gonna lie they look pretty cool... Before (forgot to take an actual before picture) ![]() ![]() We painted the hubs and rotors once we had them all off... Then we put the bronco rims to let it sit for the night. The bronco rims... LOL (was getting dark but you can still see them) ![]() And the final result.. Thanks to both my dad... and Violent of course!

Re: My New Rims! (Pictures Inside)
I'd just like to thank Violent again... I dreaded driving the car with the other rims, this totally made me love it again, and I actually get respect for owning it now... Before it was just a joke. I was seriously about to sell it... but after seeing these on it, the only way I would is if I could get a black one with turbo :P

Re: My New Rims! (Pictures Inside)
The car certainly looks better with the other rims, never really was a fan of the rims you had on before.
And the car looks odd on bronco rims lol. You should've went driving around like that lol.

Re: My New Rims! (Pictures Inside)
Those will always be my favorite stock rims. Time to lower the car!

Re: My New Rims! (Pictures Inside)
Is there any way for me to restore the plastic? you can see a little bit that its faded compared to the paint. I've tried plastic wax, regular wax, and some stuff called Black is Back that restores black and color on plastic... All of them worked for about a day... But then it faded again right away.

The peices at the bottom of and under the doors.
You can see it a little bit in my pictures, but its not as bad as it normally looks in them
