nice
Thanks, it makes me hate them less in the meantime. I expect to get some fantastically high-paying job upon graduation (yeah, totally [&:]) and then the real fun begins!

I'm still on the search for used Silver17" Flik Justice wheels... or something else, price dependant. I don't get my $600 tax rebatefor another 3 weeks.

ya you should wait a bit longer. also, a nice trick is to slowly peel while you have like the back of a razor blade right below the tape. that will prevent the peeling if you're in a hurry

are you guys crazy?? you gotta take the tape off within 10 mins of the last coat being sprayed with something like this. why would you wanna let the paint dry so when you peel it off it chips?? if its still wet it dosent make a difference, drips cant happen if your not adding more paint.
