A Senior Chief can get away with something like that! What's the XO going to do? Yell at your Master Chief?!?!? The E-9 would just laugh at him/her!

What ship are you assigned to? I work for SPAWAR in Charleston, and frequently deal with folks on the big deck ships (CNV, LHA, LHD) and LCCs.

I agree. I painted my rockers satin black. I have an SG and they don't show up as well as they will on your car.

Thank you, you helped me make my mind up. It looks great. I hated my stock rims as well. I bought the bullit rims from craig's list. I sandblasted them and repainted them and clear coated them. I only paid 260 for them.
