Enjoi!

Thanks for all the comments. I'll add some more pictures once I get more batteries for my camera.

I know they look like C8s now, and they may go back to white eventually. I don't plan to wash them any more this winter, and leaving them white wasn't going to work out.


EDIT: Thanks for letting me do it over there Richard.

love the sir lip, but either have the side skirts unpainted or get the sir lip painted to flow better.

I think that wheel was already done...it was just a "show" pic.

Ill let Ricey jump in if need be...but the wheels were done perfectly... Every inch of every spoke was done...it was a good DIY job imo.
