Default Pics of my pc whhels and caps

Finally got most of my winter projects done on the car, and it is ready to start driving, as soon as the weather clears! The wheels turned out great, especially with the painted center caps (here's my thread on that from TOS: http://reutterwerk.com/forums/showth...577#post173577). Here are some pics:

Here are some from the garage. Just feels good to be done (that's a relative state of being in the shark world, btw):

Ed,

BlueMaxx is GORGEOUS! I love it when you post pics of that car! Just amazing! Of course I am a SUCKER for blue cars anyway, so that certainly does not hurt!

Those wheels look GREAT BTW!

Those wheels rival the view out your garage window.

Very Nice!

Looks sweet. Love the center caps. Did you do them yourself?

The wheels look great! The mountain view extraordinary. Must get freaking cold there in the winter when the wind blows cold. Brrrrrrr.

+1 on the caps, they look great! I did this on the crests on the GTS, except that I used the Testors paint pens, as described by Tony (http://members.rennlist.com/v1uhoh/slotted.htm)
My skills with a paintbrush, freehand, would likely approximate those of my 3 year old, but the paint pens have a fiber 'wick' with a beveled tip that fits perfectly into the corners of the crest and flows easily. And the Testors red is semi translucent, so the little raised dots underneath show through a bit. Turned out great.
