Seriously cool Siberian husky. Probably leaves hair all over the interior. J rust is selling an ensemble of gray interior in the classifieds. Looks like it would match the under coat of that husky perfectly....might be a better option that refinishing the seats ....(IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Nice looking car!

Tom, wow, that Mahle wheel looks great. Do you know what the color code is? Did you refinish it yourself or did you have someone do it?

Yes, they look good, I had them "Powder Coated" by a local shop exoticcoatings.com . I think they said it's a Mercedes/Ford/Etc. Silver Wheel Color. Standard cost is about $100 bucks + - each to blast & powder coat. I get a better price because Fred (owner) is a childhood friend.

Mark,
I got a great deal from some hermit living in PA Amish country that eats a whole "Shoo-Fly Pie" for breakfast every morning. He didn't know the value of Mahle's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif) ???
Oh, Wait, it was you. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I got what I wanted out of them and glad they went to someone who could pretty them up. I even bought another set of mahle's recently but realized I wanted 2.0 Fuchs. So the Mahle's went bye-bye and Donald sold me his Fuchs. Actually, so will Sfrenck, so I plan to have one mirror polished and one oem anodized. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
