Hi,
I've been attempting to refurb my split rims (gram light 57f pro - I think) and am having some trouble with the bolts. Ice had all the nuts and bolts in coke for a week and while 60 out of the 80 look good the remaining 20 and all the nuts are black. I'm less worried about the nuts as they aren't visible however I was wondering if anyone had any ideas for replacement or refurbishing options? Had a glance around and can't see anything similar - hex drive 20mm bolts. Trying to get them sorted for japfest.
I've included some images below for interest
I've also included a picture of the rims, I've filed and wet and dried but irrespective of how much I sand they still seem pitted and I can't achieve a mirror finish. Think i need a machine!
Thanks.
Other option is just to spray the centre black and leave the rest colour coded which all looks really nice. Do you have black skirts? If not I'd go go colour coded or black centre.
I've actually got a set of new eibachs in a box, as they're that I had on my previous car, but thinking of going for teins instead. Especially as I'll be fitting a kit!
Be interested to see the outcome, should be nice.
