Default Stripping rims and new grill

Stripping the paint off of my tims is about 102038856x harder than I thought it would be. Im on my 5th coat of stripper and its looking like ill need another. The stripper had no effect on the tires for those who didnt know. I also just got my grill in today and am about to install. So by tommorrow I should have pics of the finished rims and new gril installed.

Orinally white rims that came on it when I bought it 2 months ago were chipping badly and scraped up.
