WHAT!!! dude that is messed up.. i saw him sitting next to taco bell when we were turing around.. you got a little frisky in the parking lot with first gear.. he heard you and then pulled out right behind you (pulled right out in front of the supra and almost hit him) and followed you up the road.. i dont think you saw him at all.. i was wondering why he took so long to pull you over, but i knew he was going to bust your ass.. did you see/hear him tell the supra pull over when we drove by? right after they were out of sight of the officer they took off! sounds like he didnt know what the hell was going on and just wanted to bust your ass.. that sucks!! well at least you didnt go to jail for drag racing (ive been there and done that)..

+1 for hearing what exact Dupont paint you used. Those look sweet. I've been tempted to do this, but didn't know how well it would turn out.

do you have a paint number or something more to go by? I can't find the paint you used anywhere.

Thanx

I agree! I've been thinking about this for a couple weeks now, and this looks really good.

Let us know which paint number you used.

Thanks!

Can you pick up the Dupont wheel paint at the local auto parts store, or is it more of a specialty item?

Looks great!

because of how awsome those wheels look i went out and got everything i need to do the job.

if you go to autozone, napa, oreilly's, they all carry the duplicolor graphite wheel paint. about $4.50 a can. looks good. ill post pics when im done with mine.
