I have it on the tip of my tongue and I want to say it's AR as well.

I know they are not Champ 500 wheels from Centerline there is a little difference to them.

 

[Ridgerunner]

They have Pro wheel and the size of 15x7 and a load rating

Well I had some fun today. I found about 1/2 the lug nuts I need. I also cleaned the dash cluster I received,painted the needles. Also took 2 gear selectors for the dash and made one good one.

Looks like that needle paint will stand out nicely.

It goes on well. I followed the instructions to a T. But I tell ya patience is not my long suit lol. I guess I did about 45 mintues before it was ready to paint.

Is there something I can use to remove the scratches from the lens?

 

[O'Rattlecan]

Like from the plastic cluster cover? You'd need to buff it out. I'd use a light rubbing compound and then take it down to buffing. But if patience isn't your thing... lol.

Thanks Roy
The company said to use index cards but I figured the Styrofoam plates work better. Also saved me a little by not having to go buy some.

 

[Ridgerunner]

I got to thinking since I had to buy a can of SEM paint to paint the glove box door I might as well try something to go along with it.
