I like the wheels in the sig better. Nice 200, very clean, especially the interior! I dig the corners too.

YES SER · 08-28-2004, 12:52 AM

those corners look really nice.. can you explain to me how to do it???

matt1sd · 08-28-2004, 01:08 AM

yeah i like the old wheels better too. they were rota grids, 16s. BUT this guy traded me these enkeis for them, plus extra cash, and my rotas were in horrible condition, curb rash everywhere (long story with that

) so i am going to sell these pretty soon and go for some better wheels. just couldn't pass up the offer

oh and as for the corners... i used tamiya model acrylic paint, code X-26 "clear orange". you can probably pick it up at any hobby shop because tamiya is a fairly popular brand. if you can't find it, i got an extra bottle i could slaaang to you

YES SER · 08-28-2004, 02:24 AM

ok cool and how do you paint then lens?? Do you just spray the outside or do something and paint the inside?? i am a noob at stuff like this...

LIUSPEED · 08-28-2004, 03:45 AM

damn looks nice.. how did u use the tamiya paint did u hafta use an airbrush etc?

matt1sd · 08-28-2004, 04:52 AM

nah all i used was a good ol' model paint brush

YES SER- all you have to do is paint the outside of the lens, took me like 10 min on each one.

nice ! how many coats of paint did you use for the corners ?

matt1sd · 08-30-2004, 04:11 AM

i did 2 thick coats, no fading so far, but i might throw on another coat sometime in the near future for the hell of it

nizzan4u2nv · 08-30-2004, 04:13 AM

2 coats, then some clear and some wetsanding, then it will really look oem.

LIUSPEED · 08-30-2004, 05:02 AM
