...but it gets the idea through. i did these minor mods in MS Paint :-]
background behind it: i got new rims (as seen in my showcase) which have some okay quality all seasons wrapped around them, but i was never able to sell my old 7 spoke aluminum stock rims. i´ve decided to paint them (they´re majorly chipped/scratched up), and black, white, or gold (like scoobies) were in my thoughts. white i´m kinda ixnay-ing on because it wouldn´t be good with my caymen-green/teal color, but black is looking pretty sweet (even from my poor quality pics here ;-) ) i popped on some clear corners for the heck of it too :-]
the pics are in 640x480, but look better even smaller, my digi cam 5uX0r5, and this was the best i could do for the first time ever trying something like this, and given only MS Paint to do so.
so enough of my rambling, time to unveil:

let me know what you think!
also, i have a request: if someone would be so kind (and if you have the time), could you take the first clear corners pic and make the rims gold, scoobie style? (still 7 spoke ones), and, if possible with the angle and such, put an WRX hood scoop on? (this is quite optional, it´ll be a long time till i do that) thxs in advance to anyone! :-D
