I like 'em.What color do you plan on painting the truck?

2wdBlazer · 08-14-2003, 08:45 AM

Wow that is exactly how i am painting mine. Just got them back from the Sand Blaster and they are primed. What kind of paint did you use? Any clear coat? Where did you get the rings and caps?

I like the custom center cap decals.

67cst · 08-14-2003, 02:16 PM

i got them powdercoated at a local shop, no idea what the code was but they are just black with a clear coat, got the rings and caps off a guy in town, i wish you couldve seen the caps before, they were so oxidized but i spent about 45 min per cap with s.o.s pads scrubbing, came out decent, then i went to get some new decals for the center caps at gm and they wanted 34 bucks a shot so i said f*ck that and went to a speed shop and got those ones made for 5 bucks a piece, a lot cheaper and better looking imo, also since im painting the truck black the rims will match and the red bowties will match the fender emblems and the bowtie on the grill

dubie · 08-14-2003, 02:21 PM

what did it cost to have the rims powder coated? Your ride is lookin sweet buds!! Keep up the great progress

67cst · 08-14-2003, 02:28 PM

rims were around 40 bucks a shot , i brought them in all grungy and they sandblasted prepped and painted, then clear coated, i think i got a decent deal

nevada70chev · 08-15-2003, 02:13 AM

what "speed shop" did you get them at? i'm trying to get some and can't find them anywhere, thanks. do they come in different diameters? or can you tell me who makes them? your help is appreciated

67cst · 08-15-2003, 03:46 AM

i got them made at a place in penticton, they are a 2 1/2" diameter decal, go to any decal place and youcan get them made, it took the girl about 20 min total but well worth it and they were cheap---im not sure who but there is someone on here that makes them and sells them for i believe 15 bucks american, ask around, someone should know
