Awesome! Can’t wait to see it.
I’ve plasti-dipped wheels before and it turned out well.

low speed in granny mode it's pronounced, seems especially so in reverse, which makes backing up just so for the curb rather interesting sometimes. Haven't tried switching to sport mode for that, though I do when I need to get thru a intersection quickly.

as far as oil consumption I haven't had it/driven it long enough yet to say

Did the window trim today, mostly went well but a had one problem - the trim is tricky since the gaps aren't consistent - also still learning technique



Before:

After:

I suspect I will be redoing it next summer since I will have the garage cleaned out enough to do it inside instead of outside.
