Good afternoon!
Wrecked my '82 244 after blowing a rear tire and becoming a virtual pinball on a local highway at 70 MPH. Slammed into the K-rail, and though the body damage was limited to a few scrapes and trim pieces, the design of the K-rail, heavy on the bottom, wiped out pretty much everything under the car. Bent frame, busted front suspension parts, bent axle, just to name a few. Like an expensive Humpty Dumpty, she got put back together, piece by piece. My original VOXX MG wheels, which I know are not everyone's fav, were bent, cracked and shredded, and also no longer available. I had 17's on but could only find 16's now from VOXX, which, being a direct fit, and lower on the cost totem pole, after burning a hole in two pockets, I went with. Someone suggested I do the trim in black, when I get around to touching up the scratches and new/used trim I replaced after the wreck. Thoughts?
SORRY, link trouble continues, I will repost later...
