Painting line on rims....
I know the title is vague but I'll elaborate first and foremost I want to say hi to everyone on this board as I've never posted on this specific forum. I have a question and I don't know if anyone has done this first these are my rims:

They are mounted on my old DB1.Maybe I'll get flamed for this but I want the lip of the rim to have a red line like other flat black rims I've seen. I painted these rims myself and I was wondering how can I do this so that the line looks even and there isn't any distortion? What paint should I use? Is this even possible? Thanks in advance in response and if you have any negative comments I would appreciate it if you would keep them to yourselves.
BTW, this is my current car:

I whould asume you were to do it the same way you painted your rims in the first place .........usein tape and paint
..........for a more round look use Electric tape, or just go to your nearest auto shop and get some red pinstriping , that way if it don't look good you just peel it off

WTF? That's crazy....I don't like the logo on them and I don't think they'll fit my rims since they are made for motorcycles.....

crazy idea. leave your rims on the car. jack the car up so the wheels are off the ground. leave the car in neutral for the front and e-brake off for the back. spin the tire slowly and keep a steady hand with a professional paint brush made for pin striping. the key is to keep a steady hand though. re-apply as necessary
