Default started painting the wheels (pics now)

well, i kicked the wheel painting off this morning when i painted one. Got it on, i was gonna take a few pics but i realized i have already packed up the digi cam. So pics will have to wait.

i think i got the look i wanted. I wanted a retro type look, and i got it. I left the outer ring silver, and painted the spokes black.

pics are here since i unpacked the camera, took the pics, and then realized i have to find what box the USB cord was in! ha
