carbon overlaying wheel spokes

[green-lantern]

I still want to see it they will balance.

I don't think balancing will be a big issue. It is amazing what a wheel shop can do with a grinder...

assuming that there's relatively equivalent amounts of material applied to all the spokes, balancing shouldn't be a problem.

yea thats what im hoping. 4 layers of resin evenly brushed on and then sanded flat should be ok,well i hope you never know until you try these things and im a trier haha

I hope so, I don't think it will be as big of a deal just doing the spokes.


They remind me of these.




But look like these.

Coopkill has CF looking paint on his valve cover. That could be another option for people wanting this look.

Edit: I don't know if you could get that CF 3D look from that though.

If I would have done the base powder coat in black instead of silver my intake and covers would look just like this:



I chose the silver because it "popped" more to the eye...
