Looking Hot In The Garage...First Major Spring Wash

Gave the TL-S its first real good spring time wash, no wax yet as that will come at the end of May. I did do a major interior detail, but the pics didn't come out so hot.

Comments are always welcome and appreciated....enjoy!

View from a far

Getting closer






Really like this shot

Thanks man, I think I might have worked just as hard on the garage as i did the car!!! It was a real POS when we moved in, but I saw past all that.

Dude tell me about it I need a drop bad!! I am hoping to find the perfect set of springs soon and get rid of this 4x4 status. I wish I could have made the meet, but work was a nightmare and there was no way it was going to happen. Next time I will be there, you can bet your sweet ass on it.

No mods over the winter, just normal maintence type stuff, but you know I have some things planned for the summer.

Help to minimize flat spotting the tires for extended durations.

Garage is pimp.

Hanging them gives a nice clean look and is kinda different. Just take you time, took me about an hour and a half as I wanted to make sure they were all level, spaced out evenly and lined up perfectly.

I used the largest L brackets that I could find at Lowes, I think they are rated at 85lbs each. They have three pre-drilled holes for hanging. I was sure to find the studs in the wall, marked them, made sure they were all level and measured from the bottom of the floor to make sure they all were at the same height. Once they were on the wall I used some plumbing pipe foam to put in the top of the L bracket so the wheel would not be resting on metal. Gave the wheels a coat of wax, shined the tires and the rest is history.
