Photoshop Request?

I was wondering if anyone could Photoshop this rim to have a red lip? I just want to know how it looks before I go and try to get it done and end up not liking it.



Just like this with the same color red,




Thanks in advance to anyone that helps out.

Just buy some wheel tape and put it on so you can see for yourself in person. It's cheap, and a lot of us (including myself) have done this.

With that said, I say no. Blacking out OEM wheels is one thing, but Time Attacking them is another.

What's wrong with time attacking OEM rims?...

If you're gonna do it, do it with a smaller stripe like g35papa.



(note, those are the sedan OEM's)

Yeah, it'd for sure be a thinner line. But what's wrong with time attacking OEM rims? Like you said in your first reply?

Because time attack wheels are supposed to be for high end time attack wheels AKA Volk CE28N or TE37s.

Not say coupes 19" rays are low quality because they are light years away from that, but for a time attacked wheel, buy a time attack wheel. You know what I'm saying?

I personally do not have anything against TA'ing your wheels. I say get the tape off ebay and if it looks sick keep it for as long as that lasts then paint it when it falls off.
