I had to use a Dremel with a wire brush to clean up the lug nuts before painting them.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

21 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Been almost a month since I picked up my 2003 996, midnight blue metallic. Spent the last two days polishing and cleaning her up! Here's some pics of the fruits of my labor... Before... Before... After... Before painting with Tamiya primer and Gloss Aluminum... Left Front final... Left rear, this wheel was sooooo nasty on the inside... Love the way it shines purple in the sun...

POST 5Original post

Good to see your wheel caps are pointing the right way (-) points if they aren't

POST 6Original post

Really well done, but you've got to get back in those wheel wells and get rid of the rest of that cosmoline, remove the liners and paint them with a semi-gloss black like Eastwood's 'Underhood Black'! Love the color.....

POST 8Original post

This looks amazing. Can't wait to pick up my own midnight blue 996 next week!

Thanks! That was by design! Did you notice that all the wheel locks are in the same position? Thanks for all the nice comments everyone! It was a LOT of work! I had to use a Dremel with a wire brush to clean up the lug nuts before painting them.

POST 11Original post

That is a unique color. At first, I thought I was looking at two different cars - one black and then one midnight blue. Wow, that is one beautiful car!

POST 13Original post

Very nice, beautiful color indeed :-) Cheers,

POST 14Original post

I remember when I used to have time to do that kind of stuff with my cars.
