Tires are delayed, so I took my wheels home to paint them.

What colour!?!?!?!?!?
Black? Silver? Purple?

Teal.
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

You wish the whole car was teal. It seems like that would clash with red.

Oh well, paint the rims silver then, or black, otherwise, it will look very girly.

That's would be a nice colour combo...but you will be noticed.

The Storm is "done". Just needs a license plate now.

Is the paint intact enough to buff out?

I hate plastic wheel covers, anyway.

Plain black steelies generally look better than wheel covers (IMHO).

Some of it is just faded, but it has a lot of dirt on it right now. I'm about to warsh it.

Is it warsh or is it worsh? I always get confused on the proper spelling.
