Thanks! had just washed & gave her a good rub-down. Yup, hoping successive waxing will deepen the SSM color. I'm due nice drop, soon.

^I'm sorry. I have a date with an MRI scanner this morning. I don't think I could drive that far until my neck & back get 'fixed'

Some day, I'll suggest a meet down by me. Many spaces where we could 'spread out' picnic and oogle each other's wheels.

I wish I could come. Stay thirsty my friend.

These are the polished aluminum. Chrome is an option. Centerline has a few styles befitting a TSX'er. I think I paid $267 per wheel, forged and 17 lbs. each for 18x7 directly from their customer service. Black, acorn lugs from McGard.

Looks very nice. SSM can really shine with a few coats of polish. Mine's due for some, too. I've been negligent with her washes since it's been so rainy this year.

I washed my car last night, only to come out to find it covered in water again this morning after the sprinklers were on last night. Poor car is sleeping in the driveway for the time being since we got new family room furniture and the old couches are in my side of the garage.

I am visiting my mom in Toms River- even tho she has a two-car garage my poor car has to stay outside. My daughter has her furniture stored in the one side of the garage. She is moving to an apartment in October so I will be able to park my car in the garage while I am visiting. It gets the garage where I live. By the way my daughter turned 30 on the 7th.

Funny, I just turned 30 on the 11th. Small world.

Luckily, my car normally gets the garage, so I'm ok putting up with this temporary outdoor situation for the time being (at least it's not winter time). The old stuff will be gone soon enough. We have more pressing things to deal with anyway. My mom's cancer is back and she's having surgery in NYC on Thursday. Everything else takes the back seat for now.
