I did a quick photoshop of what it would look like but, would rather have a real life photo.

Not really into it, have a feeling you'll start getting a lot of honda revving their engine at you.

I think having a bit of contrast is always a good thing. That's a lot of red. Just my opinion of course, if you like it you should do it.

Yea really wanting to just get the lips of my black/chrome wheels painted or powder coated red, but the painter said it is hard to get paint to stick to chrome and powder coater won't do it because wheels are 1 piece. Kinda stuck guess I'm just going to leave it black/chrome.

In all honesty you should just sell your wheels and buy something new. Seva's are a time bomb waiting to hit the right pot hole and explode.
