Default Couple of quick pics from my works parking lot....

Snapped a few pics of the car coming back from lunch today, at work:



This past weekend, I was so busy, I didnt get the chance to do everything I wanted to the car. Only had time to spray the mirrors body color, and the wiper arms flat black.




My lovely rim from hitting the crater of a pothole:



Which BTW, I received the claim form in the mail from them. My new rim should be here tomorrow, and I already have the paint standing by to spray it to match the gold on the rims. I was able to match the gold pretty much to exact color, so if it is off....I really doubt anyone will be able to tell at all.

And this is what I get to stare out my office window all day when its nice out:




This weekend coming up, I'm booked to spin at a club in Buffalo, so I dont know how much time I'll have to lower it and spray the body kit mesh and install it. But sooooooon....I'll get to it all. *lol*

Whats funny though, you dont even feel any vibration with the way it is. So I'm guessing the inner part of the rim is fine....its just the lip that got messed up.

*lol* Yeah...we like to drive outside the lines! tongue.gif


The state highway department is re-imbursing me for the new rim I bought (should be here tomorrow). They sent me a claim form and all I have to do is fill it out, send back copies of receipts of everything, with pics of the damage and I get a check in the mail within 10 business days. The new rim was only a couple hundred (wish shipping), so its not like it was alot of money to me. Its just the principle of the matter, ya know? smile.gif
