Re: couple new pics

I am not a big fan of flat black but looks good. I just like to see reflections in my paint jobs. Wet look. But that is just me. I guess you do not put a clear on flat black paint. Is flat black hard to wax or do you not polish flat black paint? Shows you what I know about the paint.

I just hit it with a little windex every once in a while, and try to keep the dust off of it. I dont know if its the blitz black paint or what but this thing is a magnet for dust!

Cool, I just got 338's installed yesterday. 20" x 10" with 5.5" bs on the rear with 285/50/20 and 20" x 8.5" with 4.5" bs with 275/40/20 in the front. It raised my truck up some so now I have to drop it more...

BTW, do you ever go to the cruise in @ The Avenues in M'boro?
