Oh god, after the FB comes back from Classic I just might have to wire every subsequent paycheque directly to ReSpeed... SO many things I want to do!

On an off-note, does anyone know someone who repairs rims? I've got a set of 83LE Rims but one of them looks like it had a very tough encounter with a curb and needs some mending. All the material is still there, it's just flattened like crazy. Either that, or does anyone have a single 83LE rim laying around they'd be willing to part with?!

After looking at many colour samples and agonizing over it I finally found one that really grabbed me. It's call Bullseye by Prismatic Powders. Actually came out lighter than the sample looked but I was worried the sample might be too dark so it worked out nicely. Black bolts from blackforestindustries.com. Not entirely sure how they'll look on the car, but they will certainly catch some stares. Not bad for my first wheel refurb.
