That speedball thing works like s**t. Biggest waste of money I've ever spent.

Can't wait to see it with the new wheels on.

well when i ordered the wheels, i asked the guy whats the best thing to use to polish them up, and he said use the powerball...do you have any other suggestions?

EDIT: im going to return the paste i bought and change it to liquid polish instead...and im also going to sand the lips/centers with 2000 grit wet sandpaper

sick hatch. since i am stating honest opinion. i f**king love your hatch. ITRs, 98 Lip, perfect drop etc etc...

but i hate the spoiler. really kills smooth flow. Whats the point in nice and smooth OEM lips if you got a razor blade of a spoiler stickin up like a sideways mohawk. Im sure i'll get corrected about how JDM it is; but looks like garbage rice crap IMO

well so far i was only able to polish up 75% of the bbs cap bolts...which are taking f**kn forever because there is 120 of them, i am doing the lips when i wake up. i ended up using some liquid wheel polish from mothers for the cap bolts, and its working out great, im using a mircofiber towel to apply and buff.
