Default Wagon Wheel Mod - decals

Well I just got through with the wagon wheel mod. Saved myself $800.00 for crome ZO6 wheels. Im still getting the ZO6 wheels but will have to wait. Taxes took my mod money!!!

Anyway this is a nice mod to buy me some time. They were an easy application and look good.

Walt:

You did a great job! That is one sharp looking automobile. The before and after difference is dramatic. You certainly didn't waste any time. Received them, installed them and photographed them all in the same day.

Way to go,

Grant

Those decals sure make the wagon wheels look a lot different - much, much better.

I'll be posting my ww makeover on my Silver C5 in the next few days, I love the look, big $$$ saver!!!!

FYI, I went to a local decal shop and bought the material and did it myself with some templates people had shared on the forum. $10 for materials and I have plenty of leftover in case they come off.
