do it, i love this idea. I have always loved the bmw wheels that are kind of like this. The e39 ///m5 wheels are the best example. Someone should do all window trim and kidneys.

If someone can find ALL the window trim, and a place to ship it - I will have it done.'89 "is" = M technic II build mode.

The kidneys are plastic that is chromed. They aren't metal. At least, all the ones I have seen are plastic. Are some years different then others?Comment

I have a set of metal kidneys, they are chrome plated steelComment

it's not cheap thin plating like you'd think. seriously, try to sand through it - you won't be able to very easily. I had 80 grit sandpaper and it would barely even scuff it.Originally posted by NitroRustlerDriver View PostComment

Really? I sanded mine down with 80 grit before I painted them silver, and I got them pretty torn up by the time I was done. I sanded them quite a bit, tho.Originally posted by nando View PostComment

Yeah, it is plastic with chrome on it. It does not stop the fact that I am still getting it black chromed. :)'89 "is" = M technic II build mode.

There's a reason Porsche was the 1st to black the wiper arms when chrome was en vogue for all the other companies. Can you say "sun glare"?
Black chrome was my 1st idea for my kidney rings, but then CF just became more & more an obsession, so we all know what I plan....even if I have to do my own myself. I prefer the black bias over the chrome for kidneys, and the Ford Outlaw series made me think that black chrome is too subtle for my taste, but it will be interesting to see what yours look like, especially since I can do it on your wallet.
How soon you getting these back in your hands?
