Ahhhhhhh ... don't wory about the footwear .... My favorite welding shoes are a pair of "CROC" flip-flops. I've got more burns in my ankle foot area from slag & aluminum that I care to count. Now ... it hits my foot & bounces off. Very little damage.

Keep up the good work.

Do it, if you don't its like buying new shoes and using your old laces. They are top notch products, you won't be disappointed. Perfect fit & finish:metal:

VERY NICE! That silver looks good for a rattle can! Not like Mexican Chrome! What size drop spindle and brakes come with that kit? Are the rotors 5 or 6 lug? Again VERY NICE!

Thanks, It's all in the prep. I'm happy with it also, i didn't want that okie chrome look, and this has a nice silver simi-gloss that looks good in person. It seems to be durable also, i have dinged it a couple times and no chips.
