Thank you!

One of my favorite threads.

I love the color you painted your car.

[Kershaw]

right, you could have the centers powder coated a highly reflective silver/metal color and no one's the wiser.

[catuned]

Yep I figured that out. It just looks cool polished but next week I will be getting them powder coated. Not worth the CNC cost for custom caps.

[Kershaw]

yeah, the centercaps are the reason you have to paint the centers on style5s. :/

or run capless.

ok not a huge update but here it is:

Black Suede headliner is here ready to install. Which will be next week. Hopefully we can have enough time to do the rest of the interior next week as well. Which will be more exciting then the work we have been doing.



Other stuff at the shop:

What's the size of the wheels?

[catuned]

Been busy working on other projects. I dont want to cut corners so no rush on this.

Also I got these Style 5's and I am restoring them to prime glory.
I decided to try one wheel with center polished out.
Here is where my question comes in. What do I do with the center cap?
Any caps out there polished out in metal or how would I match the cap. I like the look so far. And yes I have thought about running them with out the cap.

yours and KoKoSe7eN's project thread are making me want to resurrect my old one. I just may this week.

I could measure it and let you know. But there is no clearance issue and it has no issue with the fuel snorkel.
