Here's a little preview of what I'm doing this whole week.

I have to do this one at a time since I don't have access to a lift. The coloring int he picture sucks, the yellow-ish hue is coming from the garage light. In reality, it's extremely white. I took the picture from the Sidekick 2.

Again, the camera doesn't do the white justice.

I'm working on the back 2 wheels at the same time then after that, it's the driver wheel. Almost home free. :D

I also have trim rings on the way.

At first I thought you were painting your wheels the "safety yellow" color of the tC's spare tire. The white looks good, though. Nice job.

Didn't expect to get plenty of praises for this. AFter all, it's only a $70~ job.

Trim rings will be here by saturday or monday. Hopefully Saturday, you'll all see the finished product once I get my trim rings.
