I finally got around to finishing the job; got all the wheels painted, and the car is pretty clean now too. Just have to check with my wife to see when is a good time to set up a Photoshoot, then I'm gonna have Alex do it up right! These were shot with my ancient 2.0MP Olympus digital camera, so obviously we're not talking high-res, but you get the idea. ;)

Anyway, here's a closeup of the rear wheel -

Here's the front wheel -

And the complete package -

The Duplicolor Wheel Paint seems to hold up pretty well too. I'm glad I did them!

Looks very good. Nice touch, but now might be a good time to consider painting the lower panels the same color like you did in the photobucket awhile back! just my :2cents:

Sweet job. I LOVE that Duplicolor wheel color. I'd love to see a whole car done in that color...8-)

Thanks guys!! The positive comments make ya feel good. :) Hopefully you'll get to see it at a meet sooner or later, it's been a while since I've made it to one. Hmmm, maybe Whiskey Cafe tonite, if the weather holds up and we're not too exhausted from house cleaning today!

I'm game for that, I'm about to head outside and give the Z a good cleaning.
