    Borbet A's.. polish the lip/dish or no?

    I got my wheels straightened out today & came across the thought of polishing my Borbet A lip & dish.. Does it look good? Ive never seen a polished borbet and because of the DEEEP dish it has does it look to flashy??

    And should I powder coat the center a different color?

        Polished lips are for 2/3 piece wheels. -flamesuit on-

          make them EXACTLY like the third picture. more importantly, focus on not letting asian prostitutes smear themselves all over your car. its dirty.

            Not really a fan but the lighter gold wasnt too bad. The others are definitely a no-go. Also, the car would look instantly a million times better if you got clear/crystal turn signals and got rid of that lamin-x.

                I wouldn't. I think it looks better how it is.

                    I'll +1 on that.

                    Adding another color and polishing the lip makes it look kinda tacky/fake. If anything just color the whole thing another solid color.

                    But you know at the end it's all your choice and if you like it, that's all that should matter.

                      Maybe I can help you dude, but these are chrome lips rather not polished and not, as deep as your dish. ;)
