    Thanks guys.
    Sprayed the rim edges chrome, turned out quite nice I think, have to do the steering wheel again though, will post pics later.

    Looking Phat!!! It's not turning into a ricer, is it?
    Not really, I just wanted to fit new wheels and paint it to look like movie Jazz.
    Actually this was my second choice mod, I wanted to paint Shockwave a flip purple magenta with dark bronze wheels but I couldn't get hold of a second Shocky.

    Next few days are going to be just tedious sanding, filling and resanding...

    Wheels turned out ok. With masking its always a lottery as to what kind of finish I get.



    Steering wheel turned out less than perfect but I'll use it.



    Ok to mount the rear wheels I needed plastic tubing of varying sizes



    Cut down the original stub.



    Cut tubing to size. I had to do a couple of test runs to get the size right.



    The smaller diameter fits on the stub, the larger on the back of the brake disc.



    Voila!





    For the front I had to cut down and drill the original assembly. Original on right, modified on left.



    I got just the right diameter so it fits snug with no glue.





    Poly caps hold the wheels in place and allow it to spin.
