Default Make authentic replica spoon wheels from rota slipstreams?

I want to make some replica spoon SW388 wheels using rota slipstreams. My friend did it and it looks real, it's pretty much authentic now. He got the exact same type of matte paint and applied a spoon decal to the wheels. Is there a tutorial on how to do it? I'd rather find a tut first before I actually ask him. here is a pic of his wheels.

Spoon wheels aren't painted, they're anodized. They don't have decals and they weigh just over 8lbs a wheel.

Are you really under the impression that the only thing that makes Spoon wheels "authentic" is the color and decals??

Jesus Christ.

You should consider rebadging your car with emblems from a WRX.
Pretty sure nobody will notice the difference.

Thread closed, no tech, not car specific and all kinds of other wrongs. Originally thought maybe this could be put into the wheels section as a possible DIY knock off method but thread went to **** fast.

An infraction should be given for the racial slurs but I'll wait and see what happens from the closure.
