They are starting to look good and I know you put a lot of time into them but you should keep going. They're far from finished.

im not trying to make a show car piece so im just going to do a lil a wet sanding and buffing later when thr clear is nice n hard. and i didnt do the back side cause well you will never see them. if you at all the pics you cant even tell them there the same calipers im super happy with the way came out and that truly is all that matters as long as im happy

looks really good the only thing I would try to do to finish them off would maybe be some kind of small simple decal, maybe just the pony symbol or the word "MUSTANG" written across them. I bet anchor room could hook you up.

Wish I had my vinyl cutter workin or I would cut it out for you. There are a number of places on ebay if anchor room can't help you but I think it would really put the cherry on the top of all that rubbin you did.

here is the finished product as of now. the other side got a small chip in it when i was moving them in the shop so i have to wet sand it and re clear it.

with the polished surface unfortunatly I am afraid the clear will always be a problem. I would have just left them alone and planned on cleaning them up from time to time.

 

[US Soldier(stang 98)]

well plus the clear only sat over night i dont have any place to bake them so there for the clear is still very soft and will take about three week to sully harden so you have to realy careful with them for about a week

Great job Pat
