Wondering if any of you photoshop guru's can help me out. Im thinkin of gettin my rims powdercoated black and keeping the lip polished. But, I was wondering if anyone can do a photo chop before i decide to do them. thanks



P.S. The picture is currenly 1024 x 768 so if you need me to resize it let me know.

why dont u just spend like $2500 on a set of black iforged wheels? you'd get a super sick lip in the back, and the wheels look dead like HRE's..

They would look fine powdercoated, I wouldnt just throw down for new wheels. You will save a lot of money and achieve a similar look for a fraction of the price. Then when money isnt an issue, you can get the iForged or HRE.

Dunno if you care or not, but if you break up the blackin out you did over multiple layers, then set some as overlays, and others as normal with a low opacity, it retains its shine and gloss.
