Want them all black or with a polished/silver lip??

Theres a quick one for ya

i do like how that looks alot..but unfortunatly it would be extremely hard to polish the lip or whatever lip they have IF any...

heres a close up showing how little of a lip they have

it looks do-able all you gotta do is make sure you tape off the lips evenly and TAKE YOUR TIME or else it will be disasterous. I would plan at least a week to let enough coats dry and properly do the job.

BTW - that will look tons better than all black

I'll give you a set of spares if you promise to do it. Those look amazing - you have to do it. Shit, I'll even help you tape them off!

dont polish the lip. It looks hot without it. make your own spoke style in. Tape it off. Make a template. And do it for everysingle spoke. It will look hot dude. GO FOR IT!

If it looks like shit just get some paint stripper and try again. Also I don't see why it would take more than a day, most paints you would use need about 15 minutes between coats.

This is why people end up with cracked paint all over the place. You gotta do a ton of light coats. I was also assuming he was gonna put some clear over the top. When you clear coat you gotta make sure the paint is completely dry. Clear dries faster than regular paint. When paint dries it lets off a gas. When people put clear on too early the clear will dry before the paint does causing the clear to crack becasue it has to get the gases out.

It is better to spend a lot of time on it once than have to do it 3 times and still have it come out bad.
