[QUOTE="slj_2003, post: 791839, member: 37863"] Never knew painting wheels would be such an ordeal, but all four are finally painted! The bloody weather was the main problem, rain, then wind, then both! The tarp worked, but I had no more cable ties to fix them to the fence. It's always something!! I have the worst luck ? But thankfully I managed to find 4 clear(ish) days to do each wheel. [ATTACH type="full"]73920[/ATTACH] I also painted the front bumper corner trim pieces and the trim on the n/s door before I ran out of Satin Black (typical!) [ATTACH type="full"]73921[/ATTACH] The sun came out just as I finished, so of course it called for a photo opportunity ? [ATTACH type="full"]73919[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]73918[/ATTACH] I think they came out awesome!! Not bad for a guy whose only prior painting experience is spraying a rusty BMX ? Next up is doing the grey front bumper and re-doing the back bumper. I'll grab some more Satin Black from Halfords tomorrow (if the weather holds up!). I also have some clear side repeaters on the way so they will go on soon! (y) [/QUOTE]
