His "old ones" were drums

Looking damn fine

I wish mine looked that good. That's yet another project I have to do (my rear end).

Is that still just a stocker rear end that has been sandblasted/beadblasted and painted? Looks awesome!!! I have to get around to doing a diff for my project car, maybe a ford 9", we'll see! keep up the good work!

I agree, that thing is sexy. THREAD *****!

Nice nice setup tho. Its not rice to me, just because you painted the calipers and the shocks doesnt mean ****.

Rice: "Anything thats pointless to draw attention"
Your setup: "A nice paintjob with a blend of colours to improve the look and the longevity of the shocks and calipers."

Rust is a bitch.
