Very cool idea. Unfornatley my Father passed away before Pumpkin came into being. I credit all my interest in cars and motorsports to him.

Now thats a different idea, Cant wait to see how they turn out. I have done other wheels like that but in black to hide the discoloration and dirt.The MS stock rims are black on the inside. May do it on mine also as I have a second set of rims and tires so no down time.

I think it's a great idea Rick, should look pretty damn cool, we will see just how dirty they get from Brake Dust?

Yeah brake dust Steve did his calipers red I think and now are stained from the dust and cant cleanup.Black at least will hide it and go with the black trim on the car.The red may show it to much or not but will look good. The stuff isnt hard to clean off just a hassle and I have some organic cleaner that works great and doesnt hurt the paint.
