Metal Filler??
Hi. I am planning to follow this DIY: http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=3156862 to refinish my stock 16" sport wheels. I have bought almost everything needed, except one thing. The metal filler. I can't find it anywhere! The posting said that he bought it at Autozone, yet I can't find it in Autozone! Do you guys know of a place I can get the stuff or anything else that will work? Thanks

Hello. So I carried through with painting my wheels. Used JB Intdustrial Weld to fill in imperfections. I think they came out good, or at least better than what they were before. Here's a pic:

Here's a little close up of the wheel that 'was' the most damaged. JB weld and a mouse sander did the trick. After that I ghetto'ed it out and knife edged the lips till they were round with more sanding to finish them off [8D]:

Thanks for the compliments. This was my first 'bigger' project (on my first car) and I am quite pleased with the results. And I also got to love that I only paid $18 bucks for all the materials due to some hook ups
