have i finally gone over the deep end?, ... Options

[SirAndy]

i'm getting the car ready for sundays event and i when i looked at my track-wheels i got the urge to make them look better ...
so i cleaned them up and repainted the center to match my street wheels.
if i don't score at the event, at least i'm going to go down in style ...

i wasted a perfectly normal friday afternoon polishing my track wheels.
is this the beginning of the end? should i seek professional help? is there any hope?
