    1yes and 2maybe if you sand blast the rims you will have to paint them with paint they may not look good just clear the sandbast will make lines in the rims and when done they will look like cement if they use black shot they will look like a new intake but if there not care full doing the rims they can allmost cut them in 1/2 with the black shot or dig holes in them if they have some corrosion they will have pits where it was. on the top there may be rust under there if not there will be clip studs you will have to remove or you may have to fill small clip holes

    You know Pat that sniper Charles McCoy did alot of that shooting all around me.I live about 2 miles from where he lived and I never had a concern about being shot by him.Even when he had shot at cars from 70 East around the Pataskala overpass on Sat.,,I drove under that overpass Sun. morning going to church and a car stopped on it just as I was getting ready to go under it I didn't worry,though I did lay on the horn.
    It's driving the freeways and downtown that bugs me! Our police have laid off of traffic violations quite a bit here,thus the road rage moorons!
