Ok, so I won't be doing a "how-to" thread on this. I don't want anybody to go out and do this, because they think its a great idea- because it isn't! There's a reason guys do rim swaps instead of using the existing rim; its a ton more work! With that said, here are the progress pics to keep you guys up to date. I'll post the pics to show what has went into this, and hopefully the amount of work involved will scare you guys away from attempting this yourself!


Epoxy applied in the cracks and joints.









Overall shape compared to an original wheel.





Sanding the epoxy smooth. Sanding isn't really the right word, it's more like sculpting with sandpaper. My fingertips hate me...
