The wheels were in pretty bad condition from the previous owner-curb rashes, paint peeling, paint bubbles. I took pictures before I started, but somehow lost them, so no BEFORE pictures.
it was the first time I have ever painted wheels. I think they look good for my first time

The wheels look awesome man, great job. How long did it take to install the KP technologies fog light module and is there a way to turn them off if you wanted too?
Nice man! The foglight module is cool. I like how you use the white backdrop for displaying some of your items. I used to do that with my old G.I.Joe collection. :top:
^No modification needed. I think it's a universal Nissan module, model MX20, and it works with 2nd Gen also, as I recall. Here is a thread with discussions, just scroll down for 2nd Gen info: http://www.infinitifx.org/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=17643
wow you refinished your own wheels! Awesome and nice job! You mentioned they were peeling and bubbling, do you think it was poorly refinished from the previous owner or they were oem?
