Have your painter save you enough paint to paint the nose piece,, I will get busy and try to get a couple done,, probably not in 3 weeks , but not much longer,,, I been looking for a substrate to use for a filler.. possably a pollyurethane epoxy, that will flex,, and still adhere to the glass good,, I am getting ready to repaint mine too ,, so this will get me motivated,,
The wheels are 17X8, with 235-35 fronts and 245-45 rears,, the tires are proxies and the wheels have a 4" backspace,, the car has been lowered about 2 inches all the way around,, and don't rub at all unless i hit a bump with the front wheels turned,and then not bad,, but I am aware of the problem and watch out for the bumps, avoiding the curb when parking is the problem,, just takes one time to really mess up a wheel, [ maybe the old curb feelers would help, ya think?:confused Thanks for the interest

EDIT,, I origionally redid my nose [ cars nose that is] with kittyhair , and it turned out great,, but the car was parked out in the hot sun last summer for a few days and being black,, the heat caused the filler to separate from the rubber under it , and chipped off,, so any kind of filler will come off . or crack,, I think a replacement is the only way to elimate the problem,, not one of Pontiacs better ideas for sure,, what was that stuff called?? endura or something like that??
