About time...

Finally got the OK from the boss to get my first p-car! Long time lurker, first time buyer. Couldn't be happier. Thanks to all for your sage advice!

Congrats, not to be critical, but IMO you need clear markers, and some spacers to push the rear wheels out towards the edge of the fenders.

What kind of wheels are they?

Will definitely get clear markers come springtime. I'm not worried about the wheels now because these are showshoes...

Gald for you "the boss" consented to this move. The snow will be gone soon enough in Chi town and I'm sure you'll get to enjoying her even more. All the best.

looks great... and these are definitely the days the 4 makes a difference.

if i may, i think colored caps would be a great mod too. i had good results from a $50 set on ebay (black colored caps) and there was recently another post that was also very happy with an ebay set -- u can do a search. yours might be a bit trickier though since they're chrome.
