A little bit of a polished wheel
Me and my buddy got bored and right now i dont have a polishing bit for a drill, so we took to hand polishing some sections of a 18" SS/SC wheel. Took about half an hour per spoke by hand. Here are the pics, let me know if i should keep going

I scratched my left front wheel all to hell cause i sat on it with a studded belt installing the injen CAI. i got a slightly used but perfect wheel off of fljohnboy or something like that on here, this is the scrathed one after getting the paint stripped and a little polishing. Any one think that mothers powerball would have the same effect??

well i bought a mothers powerball and tried it, not great. It makes it shiny, but not the reflective shine i get with hand polishing. time to go to auto body store tomorrow and buy some real polishing ****.
