Get the wheels installed on the car with tires before you get the second set of wheels made. You may not want/need the second made the way you think right now.

But I dropped the wheels off, and three days later they were done. I didn't call to check up on them in the interim or anything.

I also want to paint these wheels with 2k black primer, then catalized silver wheel paint. I'm after a shade darker on the silver/gray color that what is currently pictured. I'm basically after a stock bbs silver.

Did some stuff today.
I sort or rebuilt the center console a few weeks back but I hated it. Too many holes in the sidewall pieces, and the passenger side was damaged in two spots. I found a second center console through the FAQ and promptly bought it. All parts came today so I slapped it together. MUUUUCH BETTER.
Here is a photo of the old, assembled console. It's just wrong. The spacing of everything is wrong and I didn't even want to look at the car with that monstrosity sitting to the right of me. I lucked out and found a used but much better console. So here comes the rebuilding.
And after putting the newer console together and getting it installed in the car, here is what I'm left with:
Much better. This car should be on the road this week or so. The new interior is nearly finished. And so are the wheels. Just need to lower it and go through all systems.
I'm headed to see progress on the Florida car. It will be going into paint in the next week or two. I'm hoping to drive the florida car to SoCal Vintage. That would be really nice. I love that car.
But what I really need is a turbo car. And to correct the SF green car's color back to Agave Green.

Side note, that box I found was about 3 inches too narrow. Need to find a bigger box now. But I will. I have not forgotten.

And this is the color it is currently repainted:
I personally like the Agave better. Better contrast for chrome and better color for a turbo under the hood.world renown Harry Potter expert
