    I think some real wire wheels would be badass, would go with the rest of the car. The whole car looks great, except in my opinion the fender skirts should be taken off, I never liked 'em on any car for that matter. But it's your car, not mine, do what you please with it.

        Looking great as usual! I really like the style the car has with the skirts and tall bumper guards, very unique.

          0000 steel wool and some windex or stoner's invisible glass do wonders for removing that window chalk stuff.

            You really have a beautiful car. I wish you'd have left the front chrome, it looked great. The black is nice too, I just really liked the chrome. I love the side skirts, don't listen to anyone who tells you to take them off.

              You just need some straight cut exhaust pipes!

              Oh yeah, use Bleache-White for the whitewalls, and a stuff plastic brush...

                That car is beautiful. One of the very few out there that can really pull off the fender skirts.

                Now you need some glasspacks (hence the name "Cherrybomb") and some chrome turndows out the back to finish it off...

                  I got them from Tom (trwp72). I believe they came off of a box Vic Interceptor, but only he can answer that one for certain.

                    Not reading all of these posts... but a wire brush and Westley's is the best thing I've found to use on whitewalls.

                    The car looks spectacular... although I am not and never will be a fan of the skirts over the rear tires...
