Does anyone know of a CHEAP place to blast my 15'' stock aluminum sunfire wheels. i want just the faces and lip done because im just spraybombing them, but i live in an apartment and dont have a place to sand them. Two of them are already sanded but id like them all blasted.

Thanx Adam

Honestly, sounds like a waste of time? It's a Sunfire, and they're stock 15's. I know you're not looking for opinions.

If you really have your heart set on it, how about you just spend the $40 per rim to have them sandblasted and powder coated? I saw prices at Century Powder Coating range from $40 to $80 for rims. I can't imagine your 15's would be above the basic price.

i think their the newer style ones, which arent too too bad... but id say go with a cheap set that needs refinishing somewhere, that might look better?

Maybe pics would help ease all the haters haha

You're the ONLY one who actually likes stock Sunfire rims!

I liked my stock rims on my Intrepid.....but they were 17" chromes. The Civic 15" hubcaps look better than stock 15" Sunfire rims IMO (and I'm not a fan).
