Winter/Rally Mode

[slowpokemd]

Before I threw on my winter set I decided to have some fun with it this year. I painted my steelies white and installed a set of rally armor flaps. I don't know how long I'll keep the white though, the paint has already started chipping in a few small places so it may be back to black soon, who knows.

Winter mode!

It is kind of fun going between summer and winter mode since it changes the car dramatically. It is like having 2 different cars for the seasons. I use Sparco wheels with winter tires, Sparco and WRC mudflaps, some under body protection along the skirts, and this year I made an intercooler protection screen.

SlowPoke those look awesome! Love the white.

I have a set of steelies too and I've been debating painting them white. Wasn't sure if they would look good or not, but now I know they look great. =D Made my day!

Thanks

Thanks!

Honestly, if I were to do it again, I would probably just use plastidip or get them powdercoated. This paint is not holding up very well at all.

I do a lot of off-roading, so that's good to know. I have like 5-6 cans of black plastidip, lol but no white. Guess i'll have to go get some. =)
