Default props to Glenn's...

glenn's polishing
813.882.0224

Did a damn good job on my wheel.. Had to get another cuz the last one was craked on the inside. Decided to see if the guys at glenn could do a better job than american powder coating, and they did. Looks pretty much factory(aftermarket?.. eh, whatever..)

Because there is more work into doing a wheel like mine than just a one color job they charged me 125 for it. Not too shabby. The price would be cheaper for an all one color wheel, i'm sure.

here are some over exposed pics from the Florida sun..


notice the line between the powder and the polish. its straight!

good call on the clearcoating the polished part. makes for easier cleaning and the polish never has to be repolished.

ur rims are hot. we'll just wait and see how i take an ordinary $140 borbet wheel and make it look like a $540 ssr professor p1, but in a 16" lol

haha, wait take some Rota Grid's, add Glenn's work, and you can have the exact same rims as kyle's S4 for 1/3 the price! and maybe not as wide since i dont think they come bigger than 7.5" and theyre all FWD offsets.
