I've manage to get hold of some more tyres using eBay so I thought I would try my hand at a mod no one has done(i think)   There is a very slight bit of overspray but I'm not too worried as I'm gonna scrub the top of the Tryes anyway I'm quite pleased withe result and it's very easy to do just take ya time Comments welcome CURRENT BUILDS

I done these freehand. Might be an idea to use masking tape as that's what il be doing for the rest of them. Also I found a few pics online to make the lines where in the right groove which is the second one in from the car. Confused myself with the soft hard thing lol cheers senna lol CURRENT BUILDS
