    I've got pics at home. I'm just getting started on this car. Needed to do some cosmetic and safety things first. This should be fun.....

    Not moving as fast as I wanted, so many other "life" things have popped up. It's getting there, slowly but surely....

    I'm inching ever closer to making a final decision on my new wheel purchase, thanks to viewing your random pop-up this morning. Geez, there's too many choices.

    Yah I've had em on my eBay watch list for months. I really do love my R99s but am growing tired of the black. I'm leaning towards a re-powder coat in a darker bronze or anthracite.

    I got my Rota RBs on eBay. Good price and quick delivery. After living with them for a while now, I'm glad I went with hyper black. Looks good with Chili Red!
