It is a pain in the butt, but it's totally worth it! I was pretty happy with mine when I got done. Of course now they look worse than when I bought them..haha stupid brake dust. :zzz:

hahaah..ya it sucks. im STILL cleaning mine and i bought them a couple months ago. but you know nothing when you have to get old paint off with industrial paint remover. now that's hell. i just use wheel cleaner with a tooth brush and it seems to do the job along with some elbow grease.

yea it sucks, but if you do it right, you'll thank yourself in the end. i used aircraft stripper and toothbrushes and paint thinner. whatta PIA, but i'd do it over again, 'cus my wheels are blingin
