Got the car back last week from the dealership ( they did my wheels under warranty ) and since it rained the last few days i didnt want to get her out because of the road salt residues still on the roads. But last night i took her out, cleaned her up a bit and took a few shots on my little Canon SD780IS powershot (sorry no DSLR pics until me and my bros have a shoot lol)...
I KNOW THEY ARE BAD... MORE PICS TO COME!!!

One thing i wanted to mention:
Before i did the wheels i was warned about doing them black as it emphasizes everything that is BEHIND the wheel, like the calipers, rotars, etc. WOW, that is CORREECCTT.. I have had the car back for a week now and on the road, and its RIDICULOUS to keep the rims clean. Worst of all.. its not the face that is a pain, because i cleaned them alot before anyways. Its the dish part of the wheel behind the face.. REALLY hard to clean that area, as i cant get my arm in behind the face and clean that 8" dish portion out. ANY recommendations on how to easily clean that? It shows the dirt so easily and looks weird when the face is spitshiny and the dish behind is dirty.
I have been told to get on of those stick style dusters to fit in there.. but that doesnt necessarily clean them well...
I dont care about cleaning them all the time because the look of all black to me is worth it, but i just want to try and get that inside dish piece!!
Thanks guys,
