Guess what is coming back home? Reply #20 – August 28, 2010, 12:02:06 AM I dont think it is much of a hassle for a canadian car to go south, (less restrictions in the states) but there is a bit of red tape for an american car to come here.... nothing major though. (depending on the year)Wait till you see the rims tomorrow... I just picked up a cordless drill and mothers power ball and am going to polish these babies up.... Quote Selected
Guess what is coming back home? Reply #21 – August 30, 2010, 04:16:45 AM started polishing the rims yesterday. had to take off and do other things so I only got one done. This was the worst rim and I did only the first step so far as I have to take off and do some other stuff right now, but I am very impressed so far:Before:After:not perfect yet, but a hell of a lot better then they have ever been...
