Wheel Teaser

I want to know, should i paint the lips the same color as the spokes or leave the lips grey?

Just got them back from the powder coat shop. Work Euroline XR's powder coated in copper vein. Like it, love it, hate it



The flash made the lips look white in these photos but they arnt.

Im pretty excited, got sick of the murdered out look, wanted to do something that noone has seen before, just to be different. It was hard because i wanted to get them black with a brushed or polished lip but that is wayyyy to common, so this is what i came up with.

Thought you would have possibly went with something forged. Quality wise they are prob worse than axis.

Is the face a mini texture or something???

Yes, similar to a hammer tone. I honestly just got sick of having a murdered out g like everyone else it seems like. I really just went with 2 totally diff combos and stuck with it. I know some people are going to be displeased and im sorry to those who followed me if you dont like this, but like they say, if noone is bitching, your not doing something right. Cant make em all happy
