FINALLY GOT RID OF THE WHITE WHEELS!!! Not that they looked terrible, and they were in very good shape, but the white really looked dated. Cleaned, lightly sanded, primed, then 5 coats of Metallic Dark Mist enamel and 3  coats of gloss clear on top. NEW RUBBER: Michelin Pilot Road 4 GT and went with the 180 rear instead of the 170. Love them so far! IGNORE THE BLACK TAIL: I'm experimenting with new tail color/designs because the all red w/black accent didn't look quite right. Found this tail on ebay and am thinking about matching the Honda black while adding some red accent to help it flow better. We'll see.
