You haven't purchased a comfort grip wheel yet? :D

I saw a GM Corvette wheel on CL the other day. Same wheel just a different center cap. 125.

what did you rub on that peeling paint job? looks cool, I got red fading/peeling paint on mine with some turquoise showing underneath

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
 

Thank you. I used some 600 grit and wet sanded. I would suggest my e some 1000 but I hate sanding and 600 got the job done faster :lol:
