Default **My T/A inspired Fat 5's**

Time Attack inspired Fat Five's!!!! Spent last night sanding them, and cleaning em. This morning painting em. Mounted. Ballin on a budget ain't easy.

Tires masked and red edge being sprayed.


Mask red lip to paint center black.


After several coats of both, carefully peel tape when dry.


Set of 4.


Mounted!!!






I'll paint the centercaps later. I'm thinking of doing something to them, but haven't decided yet.

Pretty good...Looks like you could use some claybar action on the front bumper...

Car's dirty as hell. 230,000 miles, and the whole body needs a refresh.
