Scored a set of Fat Fives

Yep, scored a set for a great price! They need a little work, but I should have 'em ready in a few weeks.

The OEM wheels are 15inch. There are some fine scratches on 'em that I'm going to need to get out. Probably gonna wet sand 'em. I'm thinking around a 2000 grit to start. What do you think?

Or take them to Metro for a refinish.

2000 is good as your final point. Then some of that silver spray. We had a good time at RingTech Tuesday:
- installed a RSB on an Avant
- brake pads
- service
- some Top Gear action!
