Hi,
I`m a dedicated BMW geek and have a 1995 525i, and a few other older Bimmers. Anyways, I`ve stumbled upon a set of Borbets locally that need attention. I can get them for quite cheap, and I`ve always loved the 80`s-riffic look of them! :cooleek:

They`re terrible pictures, I know. I`ll try to get better/more revealing pics. Not sure if there is curbing (I`m sure there is).
Basically, I`m not looking to win a Concours with these wheels, just want to VERY cheaply restore them. The point is to give me a project to undertake over Christmas break. Lots of elbow grease is fine.
Is there a special way to do this? I was hoping I could just wetsand/Simple Green/Clay/Polish but is there any more to this?
Thanks!
