    Hmmm... dunno yet. Actually I thought I'd just leave them as is (raw). Although the thought of having them powder coated does sound good.

    TucsonVX - your's are silver, did you paint them (spraypaint) or did you have them powder coated?

    Tomdietrying - how did you finish yours?

    What did you finish yours in, dub?

    Those red beadlocks would look sweet on my VX!
    We're making these for ANY size rims with a few different styles. They can be a full DIY beadlock kit including inner and out rings with all grade 8 hardware and button head capscrews. Or they can be rock rings, where you just weld the outer to your rim. Aluminum kits are an option. Here are a few examples of the designs, but more to come!









    BTW, clean your garage...Uugh!
    Haha, yeah Biju, clean YOUR garage! That's actually my bad, been too busy building stuff and neglecting the garage!

    Sorry Ben...AFAIC, anyone fabbin' up parts for the VX gets a "pass" on any amount of garage grunge.
    I've heard cleanliness is next to godliness, but IMO, VX mods trumps cleanliness every time!

    My friends call it the *parascope*. I call it my vanity mirror. Allows me to make sure I don't have somethin' caught between my teeef as I drive around.

    The sliders, tho, are sweet. Beefy, and probably the best mod I've done yet (imo).

    I wouldn't leavem' raw dude....they'll just rust & get ugly real quick.

    If it was me, I'd stay away from anything that doesn't come in a can. (powdercoating)
    If you make good use of them, & I know you will...you'll eventually need to "re-adjust" the paint. My point being, rattle can more E-Z than powdercoat.

    I finished mine in a coat of primer & a couple coats of spray on bedliner that I found at Mills Fleet/Farm. I like the slight texture it gives them & E-Z touch up is a + too.

    Also, remember to douche everything underneath with primer so you don't get the "rusties" where they get zapped to the frame rails. (after the welding's done)

    Can't wait to see em' in person when next May FINALLY rolls around.
