Story time?!?!

 

I like where this is going

 

ugh, purple wheels on a TL? really? I just dont understand some of the things these guys do to their cars. Looks like you need a garage man.

 

Different strokes. not everyone likes dull colors.

 

This thread is on the brink of failure....

 

This thread is really starting to piss me off.

 

Oh really! Hey, if I'm on your payroll-just know, I'm good but I'm not cheap.

 

I'm guessing it is more delay due to snow

 

I think the name of the color should be revealed at this point. It will ease the pain if we can know the color.

 

thats fine....

i will pull a Sharksbreath on your payment....

 

 

i swear, if i see pictures of your car painted NBP again, I am going to barf out of my ass and crap out of my mouth.

 

Dieser Faden geht noch? Ohne irgendeinen Bilder? Muss der neue Plaudereienfaden sein

This is almost as bad as Fatty trying to ship a package to Canada...

 

Waiting a month for this paint job...

 

well i was getting bored with the car and just wanted to temporarily do it for the baltimore ravens football season (black/purple). besides, don't you have another car to buy that you can't afford? the purple is totally reversible, as seen below.

so i picked up the car last night, it looks great and i'm very happy with it. i get home, and had planned on removing the purple from the wheels. i pull off the front passenger side wheel first and BAM! giant slice/gouge on the inside of the tire...didn't puncture the air tube...but def not safe to drive on. i ordered a new tire and should be here today, mounted and put on tomorrow.

how'd it happen? i don't know. but i'm thinking i'm running too much neg camber up front so i'm going to correct that asap. these tires only have like 8k on them, as i hardly drive the TL.



as far as removing the plasti dip/spray paint...here is what i did. jack up car, put on jack stands, remove all wheels and centercaps. hose down wheels with a generous amount of wd-40, agitate with a wheel brush, peel up one corner of the plasti dip, and pressure wash. it all came off very easily, except for the inside spokes. i'm thinking i was unable to coat those spokes with enough dip for the paint to adhere, so it's basically just paint on the wheel on a few spots. i'll remove the excess with a plastic razor blade and goof off/rag. seems to come off fairly easy.









yeah what can i say, it's not for everyone. it's not even for me. if i could go back and do it again i wouldn't. i miss the original PC gunmetal finish on the wheels. boredom is a bitch.

hey, nobody is forcing you to click on this thread.

sorry, ravi.

i can't help that it took this long. imagine how i felt for 4 weeks with NO car. sucked. now i have my car, and still can't drive it.



o rly? that's funny, i waited a month too!

everyone else, i'll get some pics asap as soon as i get the new tire mounted and whatnot. sorry for the additional wait.

 

Those are not the pics we are looking for.

 

Lol wut?

 

i know i know. yesterday didn't go as planned.

what don't you understand?

 

Be nice to me. I've kept your little secret.

 

be nice to me. i filled you in on my little secret.

 

OK....I'll give you a pass because of the snow. But we need results here.

 

Dear Dolphinsneeze,


Nerberdy cares what color your wheels are or even if your car has wheels. We want paint pics.

Love,

Erbody.

 

hey man i hear ya...didn't expect a blown out tire yesterday and i'm not just going to take some shitty iphone pics of my car. i want the reveal to be something worth looking at with a DSLR and fancy lens.

 

We'll wait...last set of picture quality was disappointing at best and your paintjob deserves to be shown in all it's glory.

 

So I should come back Saturday?

 

December 15th maybe We can only hope he has pics up by then

 

The world is going to end before Aaron reveals his car.

 

when is the end of the world scheduled for next month?

 

be funny if the vultures get to his NBP again before pics....

 

Neon Brown Pearl .. its going to look like Mr Hanky

 

Yup. The 21st.

 

well some decent news, getting new tire mounted today and should have it back by 5:00. $190 out the door new tire and mounted, balanced. decent deal?

will remount wheels and get pics asap.

 

Whatchu doin with Austins wheels??

 

^


P.s. I'll hate you if it's a brown, Aaron. I want a brown car like the M5 or porsche' ABM

 

ASAP...=AT-Somepoint-Aint-Possible...

 

Yeah I finally got a hold of a pressure to reverse the plastidip/paint. Not possible with out it.
Such a great idea, the paint actually really stuck onto the plastidip.

 

a better question is what is austin doing with MY wheels???

nope, not brown. that's all you man!

that is sort'of what this feels like...i do apologize for this taking so long, didn't forsee a blown out tire happening yesterday.

yup i was amazed at how easy it came off, especially when i switched nozzles on the power washer.

 

This thread is so much fail.
