Do it man. You posted this four hours ago and the weather has held up. We have three more hours of decent light left and it'll only get colder.
Swap swap!

When you change tires, you also want to change the wiper blades while you are at it.

I put my blizzaks on yesterday, but mainly because I'm heading to Whistler this weekend. Otherwise I think I would have waited a few more weeks.

Swap complete. Won some money playing poker last night so I decided to be lazy and pay to get them done at Canadian Tire. Dude curbed my rim and they're sending out to be fixed... which is a good thing really, because that rim had a scuff on it anyway.

Okay finally got to wash my car today and took some photos. LOL
While I was "Time Attacking my steelies" I though I'd use the extra pin-striping! My car's gonna look better than everyone else's during winter!!!
Why waste $40 on an emblem when I can get the same effect for $5.99!!!!
Take that VW!!!

^ it's called Skills!!! HAHA JK
Okay, on a serious note. I bought the automotive grade pin-stripping from Crappy-tire. It's really not that hard. As long as the temperature isn't that cold the adhesive should stick on. When you put the vinyl tape on, just slowly mold it on to whatever you want. Use your fingers to work the tape(back and fourth) a couple times. Let it rest/cure for a couple hours before putting it on the car etc etc. Oh and one more thing, be sure to clean the surface with some alcohol to get rid of any debris, dirt etc etc.
