Carrera Sports painted and installed

Finally had my Carrera Sports painted and installed. Very happy with the results, the 8.5f/11.5r fills in the fenders nicely! (excuse the dirty car )

Kudos to Fast Forward Wheels (here in LA) for doing a fantastic job with painting, balancing and installing these! Great experience with them, highly recommended.

Great looking combination. I was thinking of doing the same with my Carrera S II wheels. Has anyone painted the S II wheels?

I did the same with my "lobsters", big difference, I even stopped looking for a new rim set, I guess I can use that money towards a new exhaust or.....
