I'd have to admit -- Boss was the guy that really got me addicted (and overly obcessed) about wheel wells.

I don't have access to any pics (thanks GE!  I love your firewall!  It's far too efficient!) but, I'm not sure I can top the Dodge... just look at that tire!  You can't tell it's a white letter tire!

Nice work, guys!

That's a really nice looking truck Attworth, I like the tire/wheel combo you go on there.

Of course you guys realize that you've got me in the same rut. In fact, it's gotten so bad that a couple of weeks ago I jacked my truck up, pulled the wheels and repainted the entire rear axle assembly with Frame Saver gloss black paint. (Nothing like an upstate NY winter or four to ruin the OEM paint.) It's much like the vaunted POR stuff, but a bit less expensive. At least the flat turtles will notice.

The worst part about this whole undercarrige detailing fetish is that the parts we're so proud of take the worst beating the fastest. Of course that won't stop any of us. Anybody seen my Hyperdressing?

I think Boss and RP should get a bonus from Megs for turning so many people on to this thing... I know MANY of us became believers in this concept. It is one of the simplest yet most effective finishing touches that really makes the owner smile...

Couldn't agree more on that.  I know it wasn't long ago when I took my game to a new level under the wing of Rock.....ask him, he'll tell you stories of me emailing him in pure panic mode.

Those are some great shots!

I vehicle doesn't look even close to being detailed until the wheels, tires, and wheel wheels (along with everything else of course  ;) ) look as good as the paint.

Those pics are the proof!

P.S... We need a "thumbs up" smiley!   ;D

Least aggressive product first = The MOST aggressive process (product/pad/machine speed) that will get the job done by removing the LEAST amount of paint, with the LEAST amount of work, in the LEAST amount of time.
