Aces36 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 With the nice weather here in NY that past few days, I finally spent a couple of days buffing out by hand the horrible buffer swirls left behind from the previous owner. The car was hideous to look at in the direct sunlight. Now the paint is smooth as glass and the finish is deep and swirl free. http://i413.photobucket.com/albums/pp217/sts-v/car%201_zpsc1ci49oi.jpg http://i413.photobucket.com/albums/pp217/sts-v/car%202_zpsquwpiw5e.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aces36 Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Are those painted calipers or caliper covers?? Look good Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk Thanks. They are the MGP caliper covers. I had intentions of painting the calipers but in the days leading up to the weekend I set aside to paint them, I kept looking at the calipers and thought they are not the nicest looking calipers. Next is the wheels. I have finally narrowed it down to three choices in 19x8.5 between the Enkei TSP6, TSW Mirbeau or Miro 111, all in silver.

chefdrew Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 That would be the perfect set up 19x8.5. of course offset plays a large factor in my opinion. Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a push in a direction, I like the Miro 111's. They look right on this car. The other two look too spindly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefdrew Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Agreed on the miro Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aces36 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 The offset on the Miro's seems way too aggressive with the limited widths they offer. I don't want to do any mods to the fenders to make them fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
