CrossCudi's 95 AT200, New Paint Job Options

[CrossCudi]

Sorry guys i never really entroduced myself, just kinda walked in about 2 yrs ago lol !!
my name is martin, but known as *Cross =)

so lately ive been working on my celica and decided to share.

Red 95 celica 1.8st
Pretty much stock everything except:

Headers, some tinted windows, and a decent sound system.

Last week i was able to get my hands on some TC wheels for a very cheap price because they were filled with curb rashes, and only had 3 tires.
Over the weekend went to my local ACE Harware and bought some beauty supplies...

FOA: sorry for bad quality pics:

they were all like this:


and this:


since i dont have a garage to work, i carried them up to the roof and started working there !

i JB Weld all 4 rims and sanded them down...


after that process was done, the next day was finally the more fun day,
i primer n paint n clear..

*3 coats of primer:
if u look closely i didnt do the greatest job applying and sanding the jb weld
but i am 100% more happy with how they look now than b4.




and here they are after *3 coats of gold




im totally unexperience with this stuff, and if i can go back i would definitely prep alot better before painting.
sanding really makes a huge defferent but its such a B****!

i was very happy with this color, i wanted a bit darker but i can roll wit it.
the 3 tires are in fair conditions, i would say about 75% thread on there,
need to buy a fourth.

Also: Ordered me some Megans Coils which i should be recieving in the mail tomorrow..
can possibly do an unboxing video or just snap some pics to show u how they come and look.
i was reading up on the HOW TO: threads and was really tempted on installing these myself,.
Any recommendations would help..
