My NIP Associated chrome rims arrived today.
I sure wish I had a pair of fronts to match! And some new tires!!!
I have an extra set of NIP rears,if anyone wants them,or has some fronts to trade.
Love the look of them!
Might have to just get my white fronts chrome plated,if I come up short on the hunt for NIP chrome fronts.
Thanks man!
I laid down a few coats of Tamiya PS-17 Metallic Green,backed it with Tamiya PS-13 Gold,then backed everything with Tamiya PS-1 White.
The green really shimmers in the sun and gives it a nice depth under soft light.
Oh for some chrome fronts!!!
I'm off to trawl eBay.
I found some tatty used chrome fronts...I bid on 'em,as you do.
Does anyone have a way to chrome wheels cheaply and easy???
