Cheers.

The main details we know are minor bridgeport 12a but I've asked the chap who built it

Passivating was $40 for a whole mixture of pieces and air filter stickers were made for us and brother stuck them on.

Just found a place that'll polish my hotwires for $60 a wheel if anyone is keen on getting theirs done. Pretty cheap for the amount of time and patience it takes.

I presume you're going for standard hotwire look with polished spokes and painted insides?

The way I did it was polish them well first (which I guess you've done), then use that see through sticky tape that you get in little plastic snail dispensers and cover the front polished part with it.

Then take a razor blade or new craft knife and cut off the bits round the edges so it's only the polished front that is covered. It's easy cos you just run the blade along the edge as a guide. Will take you a lot of time, girls have more patience though haha.

Then paint, let dry and peel the tape off.

Guaranteed best looking set of hottiez in the country.
