    Well, after seeing the wheels in the morning light. Not sure satin finish is to my liking. Might go grab some flat black.

    Breaking out the pressure washer to clean up the over spray too. So much more to do today

    Good work with the snorkel. Definitely original as far as 2nd gens go.

    The satin will fade a bit over time so don't be too quick about respraying the wheels. They look sharp!

    Thanks

    There are huge thing's in the works. Plans that everyone can benefit from. Just need to get things organized and touch up on another dusty skill of mine.

    Deal with the plate in front of me and move on
