i dont think it would be worth the work. there are too many nooks&crannies on our wheels, and polishing would take forever.

polish stuff in the engine bay instead. cool.gif

jaws021 has it done to his rims. they look hot as hell though i don't recommend polishing stock rims. the 2000 rims in my opinion look like something you might see in a dunkin' doughnuts display case.

I actually ordered a set of OEM rims off ebay that someone had polished. They looked pretty damn good. Hard to keep clean and shiny though. Thats why I got rid of them.
