I'm glad you did't use the undercoating spray.

Looks good, Bud.

Rob. I used to pinstripe years ago. Try this: Get some 3/16ths or 1/4 inch red pinstripe and run it on each white stripe exactly 1/4 inch in from the edge of the white outside edge. You will not believe what a difference that makes on your stripes. Its similar to what Chevy did with the SS chevelles and Z/28's. try it on only the outsides of each stripe first,...you'll thank me later. (besides, its only $4.00)

Like the wheels would I have done it --> "NO" <--
But being a former 12+ time 1970 Big Block Chevelle SS owner I do like the look. I think, maybe, still deciding ???.....
But for the record they're vinyl and I can pull them off (I assume) ; )
