SeanWHU Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Thought I'd get started on making the Fiesta look a bit more "me".....spent the weekend spraying the alloys from Silver to Black. Done the old fashion way, rub down/primer/gloss/lacquer and got to say it doesn't look half bad.

SeanWHU Posted April 3, 2014 Author Share Posted April 3, 2014 Thanks :) Knew that would be coming lol wanted to leave them to dry overnight before I cleaned the wheels.... Will post a pic once this desert sand has cleared and all is clean :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nighthawk Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Did you do them with the tyres still on? Sent from my HUAWEI Ascend P2 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanWHU Posted April 3, 2014 Author Share Posted April 3, 2014 I took the wheels off the car, but yeah the tyres we're still on the rims, used a piece of cardboard between the tyre and rim to stop the paint getting on them..... It's just the dust from sanding that's making them look like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanWHU Posted April 4, 2014 Author Share Posted April 4, 2014 Now she's all cleaned up! :) next step is to colour match a few parts, side mirrors, front grill etc. and make the plastic parts actually black again.....then get some Black/Orange DMB Gel Badges....then tint rear windows and i'll be happy!
