Have you taken a buffing wheel and some compound to them yet?

^^ I haven't super buffed them yet because i still am gonna have masking tape all over them soon when i paint the mesh, then i'll hit it with a buffer.

As of now i'm sanding out all the scratches starting with 320grit, then 400, 800, 1000, 1500. Then a coat of mothers billet polish.

I think a rear wheel bearing broke again. When ever I use the throttle even the tiniest bit the car crab walks. Its the same thing that happend when I had a rear wheel bearing race actually split from the bearing itself.

But I now have stock SE's in the back with squishy tires, so that might be part of the issue. I need to figure it out because I have to drive the car to brooksville tonight.

Car felt normal last night with my normal wheels on the back.... Any ideas?

put the rear up in the air and check for "wheel play", check toe rods and all. If thats Ok then go ahead and rotate the rears and see how it goes.
