    Shelby Wheel Refinishing

    What are you guys using to refinish the metal part of the Shelby wheels. One that I have is really worn on the edges and I'd like to class it up a bit before putting it into my Lancer.

    Thanks a ton. I sprang for it from Amazon due to my ongoing grudge against Dave at Summit. I'll do a video on this and report back when I have it in the car.

    Will it also match the black that is on the door handles on my Lancer ?

    Here is the finished product. I think it turned out pretty well. It's not perfect, but it's really nice considering how bad it was when I got it.

    Looks nice. Did you do the "Wood" part too?

    All I did to that was clean the gunk off of it very well. I was amazed at how well it cleaned up.
