i did indeed undercoat the wheel wells with 3M undercoating (with attention to great care). i pulled all off the rims, put it up on jack stands, covered the car and masked things off accordingly.

my reason for doing so ... i had some friendly rub in the front wheel well (when in reverse at full lock) and wanted to conceal it when going back to the original ride height... after doing the front wells ... i decided i wanted the rears to match...

the plus... it doesn't seem like the car sits as high ... by eliminating the attention to the white wheel well/gap... by coating it black.
