just got a great IDEA! need help though..

i was looking at my rota circuit 8's today when i realized that they would look quite nice if i were to powder coat them red and leave a polished silver lip. they are 15's and i have them on a white EK hatch. how do you guys think that would look. if anyone has any pics then let me know. thanks alot

Re: (.jefs0ng)

yeah i know. but do you think that the c-8's would look somewhat similar if they were painted the same way. any opinion on if they would look good or not?

Re: (tightDA6)

I have an idea.

On one side of the car, powdercoat the inside of the wheel red, and polish the lip.

On the other side,

Polish the inside of the wheel, and powdercoat the lip red.
