Looks awesome!
I'm loving the second pic (the rear wheel and your foot)!

Nice. If you get some polish you can make those lips shine even more and then put a coat of wax on them to make it easier to clean

I used Mothers Aluminum wheel polish and a microfiber towel by hand. They were disgusting. I have an order of English Custom blend polish on the way. I will then use the powerball and a fresh coat of wax...
