Debating on whether to do the piece around the window trim black as well. Next little project is changing out all of the yellow interior lights for LED which are already in the mail.

You can't wrong with a murdered out XK. You can't go wrong with being a Nole either. I have many fond memories of that campus.

Not rusting my skillz with a spray can, how much should a reasonable body shop (in an overpriced area) charge for using the dipmycar.com kit cost to spray (gloss)? And what about the inside of the wheel? Do you try to paint that (wheels off car?) or does it look ok just painting the outside edge of the rim? Seems like brake dust on the inside of the rim would show if not done this way...

So time to take off the wheels, mask and plasti dip the inside and outside of the rim... Any idea what a reasonable $ would be?
