Revel at my masterful paint skills Muwhahahaha.
J/k.

So yeah, this is my idea. Paint the lip black like the est of the wheel, then take a small brush, and hand paint a line each of the little wing like things. There's a crease in there, Do it right in the crease. It's unique, looks pretty cool imo, and do the stripes around the wing things in the color of the car like you have. You could probably get away with silver too.

I think if you keep the color stripe the size of a pinstripe, it would look great. How do you mean too much? Too much work type of thing?

too much blue and too busy looking. might do a photoshop with some gold or bronze and see what that looks like

Try it, I have no photoshop, and I don't know how to use it. But I think with a nice thin line, it would look good. Not to busy, but a nice touch. Hell, I might even give it a shot on some wheels, if I can find some cheapos.

bronze will look good....maybe photoshop to see what it would look like just to make sure you like those rims in that colour. Some wheels just don't look good in bronze.

I think they look pretty nice the way they are now though.

White or bronze will look good.

I'll try bronze and if they don't look good maybe I'll go white. Think I should do it with the 99z wheels or my current ones?
