Blackedout S5 Rims Pics Poll

What do you think?

These rims were trashed, so I figured why not.

I still have to put the center caps back on, will post pics with caps tomorrow.

wait till I get the next set of pics up before voting if your undecided

I dont see why you couldnt, I did that by hand.

Just grab yourself some painters tape "very important to get the blue stuff" and slowely tape every little section of the lip, little piece by little pice.

It takes forever, but the longer you spend taping the less time you will spend fixing your **** ups later.

As long as the lip on your rims are polished it will look good.

My rims have stock polished lips and I caint even bring out the shine any more then they are because my dremely with a buffing wheel burns the clear coat bad.

this forum sucks ASSSSSSSS

I hate uploading pics then the page blanks out, the pic doesnt get uploaded, then when I go to upload it again it says I already uploaded it.

So if I already uploaded it where the **** is it?

Gorgeous, I want to do the samething thing to my wheels since I have no plans on changing them to any other style. I like the stock wheels and they're lightweight so I'm happy (S4 GXL). Great job man, first time I've seen in on a 7 before (I saw it first on a Porsche Trans Am car...watch the race tomorrow and you'll see the car at Mid Ohio...it's a White Porsche with black wheels and polished lips...forgot the team though ).

GREAT JOB!
