I told her I would be willing sacrifice and get a nanny/maid... maybe a 20 -25 year old latina to help out... hehehe.. Surprisingly she didnt like that idea

-Use a deck of card and place it between the tire and rim
-Use 2-3 coat of plasti dip with at least 30 min between each coat
-Buy Duplicolor for wheel in whatever color you desire
-Spray 2-3 coats again with at least 30 min between each coat
-After the last coat. wait and hour
-Apply as many coat of Duplicolor clearcoat as you would like to finish it off. I went with 4 coats.

That s the process in a nutshell Make sure you post your final pictures in the Mod thread. But keep all questions in the random thread. Thanks.
Tevi, thanks for the write up. That's the procedure I was following basically. Bought an oem grille from the forum and will do it in the duplicolor bumper and fender renew spray - it's dark charcoal. I was going to do the wheels in the duplicolor gun metal color but it seems more bronze gold on my test. Not sure how that will look with BS. question - how do you cover the holes on the wheels so that the dp doesn't get torn up when you tighten the lug nuts? Thanks.

we simply used painter's masking tape to tape up the lug nut holes before spraying. then once everything dried, we just peeled the tape off..worked fine.

ehh...not really a fan. Cool offer w/ the partial sponsorship, but those wheels without more concaved lips just doesn't work well.

I like the idea of it but just too much for me, I like a nice clean look. That offer of the sponsorship would be sweet, just too much going on with the wheels. I appreciate looking out for a brotha!!

What was everyone up to all weekend? Hopefully not wasting time watching the Vikes, it is time to bring in PONDER!!!!!! And btw Taylor, I saw ya got screwed last week after we ended in a tie, they changed the score Tuesday and I beat ya by a point

No prob. I just putzed around the house and spent time with family. I gave up watching the Vikings a long time ago unless it s a reason for friends to get together.
