I know I am stupid for asking a question such as this but what would be bad if I sanded off the paint on my stock rims to make them a shiny aluminum??? Perhaps buffing them even? Would I have to do them one at a time and take them off so as not to get any crap on the rotors? Is sanding off the paint going to damage anything? I really wanted to buy some neat-o shiny rims but with the recent tranny replacement I'll be working just to make the rent.
