I was going to consider it, but that price might make it a bit cost prohibitive. Though, they do have a How To on their site. I guess I should have taken home economics, huh. I don't think I have the skills to sew.

Did they steal your images or did you give them pictures of you car? They're the same:

They didn't steal the pics lol. I just sent them a copy last night after the install since they were really cool to work with. I just noticed they added my pics and a product page for the wheel cover!

Yeah, I wasn't implying anything, just surprised to see that they were the same pics.

It's less expensive, and you don't have to prep your car at all. Just a safety check. And it does teach you how to drive your car a lot better. Gives you good fundamentals. Plus there's guys out there that have been doing it for over 20 years and most of them are willing to help teach you. Plus you can ride along with others to see how they run the course. It's fun and you normally don't damage anything. Plus there usually close to where you live. Tracks are hours away usually.
