I was thinking of doin that. I'm gonna scuff up the MT and the design next to it and leave it silver too. That with the lugs should be enough of a contrast, don't ya think?

One of these wheels might be a lost cause. The only thing I haven't tried is sanding or having them media blasted but I'm worried that would mess them up since they're aluminum
I spent all morning on this one wheel trying to get this black shit off of there. Everything from an aluminum wheel cleaner, to some degreaser and even had some mild acid they use to clean the inside of aluminum tanks and nothing

bead blast or walnut shells will do a nice job on it.

Yeah I know... It's like it's just baked on brake dust. And it's only this one wheel. The other three just need a good polish and they'd be like new. I'm gonna ask around a couple detail places here in town and see if anyone has anything that will get it off before I go any farther
