stipe is a little too thick and it'd look better without the silver lip, but props for having the 1st time-attacked W203!

if anyone's interested, they have a shipment of 5x112 TE37 T/A's over @ Audizine...probably won't find those again.

thanks robert,

I tried a 1/4 inch strip, and it looked so stupid.... so I decided to go with a thick strip!

hey advans, great idea! although... i think if you go that route you should paint the entire chrome lip black so it wont distract from the red.... thennn make the red stripe thinner. just my opinion. but it definitely is a great idea... i just think it needs a little refining.

Gary, I wish you wouldn't distort your pictures so much. I know the whole "sharpen" tool is kinda your signature thing, but it takes away from being able to see the details well.

That won't work for my color matched rims. Remember, my car is midnight blue, not black.
