I'm impressed. Bronze really works well with those wheels, maybe you should do a "how to" for the 6 gen site...

Would it be much easier if i make a cardboard cone to fit around the lip of the rims rather than taping all that thing? What do you think? My rims need painting urgently as i made a very ugly job last time and currently i am a little low for new rims. (new custom rear and front lip, suspension parts, Vacations overseas)
