    well normally i would spray paint like i usually do, but i want to paint the whole car. so i might just keep the car looking like this and just deal with it until i get some money to get it painted.

    It's looking good. The white wheels look cleaner. Keep up the good work!

    BTW I'm digging out the steering wheels tonight. I'll send you pics.

    Unhappy

    a bad night for the teg. i was pulling into a friends driveway, and off all the things to run over, i ran over a can of spray paint. green exploded onto the car. front fender, part of the passeger door, and some of the wheel. i managed to get most of it off. still some on the wheel and mudflap though. at least its getting painted, eventually. lol
