Any pics of the tape job? I'm specifically interested in the open portion where the pins and the brakes pads are, did you tape over that whole?

Actually got them here on the forums from the tunerzstore vendor.

Didn't get any pics of the tape job

. But for that open section where the pads are I just taped it up so nothing inside showed. Pretty simple

Looks great, I'm thinking this color, or color match the amber in the headlights. Most likely that's what I'll be going for. Maybe paint the wheels for real this time, instead of dip.

Mo, you need to just bite the bullet and do it! Close your eyes and spray a little. Once you get over that initial hump, it's all downhill from there.
