HAMMER_VR6 0 Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 if you jack up both front wheels and support the car,, stick it in gear then hold some wet and dry sandpaper on the outer rim. Speeds up the job. Link to post Share on other sites
pfennell 0 Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 SOUNDS A MINT IDEA LMFAO..looks like the winter has set into your wheels mate all the salt ect you will probably find that it has gone into the alloy rather than surface damage so a full strip and powder coat is the way forward probs...or just get the lips polished then get a good laquere on to stop the elements getting in....
