first winter cleaning/photoshoot

Well since it was the first reasonably warm and sunny today for the first time in forever, i did a quick wash+wax+photoshoot








i climbed up the snow in the background to get the pics from the higher angle

and thats what happens when you step in a weak spot in the snow and your shoe somes off, lol

actually i had the voxx anconas, but with the 8in width low offset, and 245's it was rubbing like crazy so i took them off and put the stockers back on

thats a good idea about the silver pinstipe though, ill have to look into that

Ah, that would look slick! OP should go to autozone and get the stick on pinstripe just to mock it up to see what it looks like, then take pics!

yea, you have to drill two holes into the bottom of the lip. they are on the underside though and the install is pretty easy besides that

also btw, tahnks to everyone for the coments, and i submitted my car for March COTM, so votes would be cool
