[VintageLambo] Rub strake refurb

Author: mirror

Message

In a vicious bout of bead blasting, I did the rub strake on my Espada. The old aluminum strake part had been repainted several times without the benefit of paint removal (or removal from the car, apparently). It looked like #&^!$*%. So, after blasting with glass media, it looked pretty nice. I shot some clear over it, and threw it back on the car. The rub rail insert was buffed with a bit of rubbing compound. With the SS bezel around the windows, and the bright whells, I think it looks better than all black. Opinions? (no, it"s not stock or original) Doc
