Help me choose? paint rims?

Hey,

This has been going on in my head for so long now. I can't seem to get it out of my head. I always loved that time attack look on rims. Don't ask me why lol. I know its over played but its a must have for me lol.

So i was wondering.. Should i blackout the whole rim even the lips. Take screws out keep them chrome.

Then its either a time attack of RED or YELLOW

If i did yellow i would repaint my calipers Yellow currently they are red.

reason i wanna do all this is because i wanna sand down and buff out all the curb rashes




Let me know im wondering what i should do

I just really wanna be able to get rid of all the curb rashes a lot of sanding grinding will be done PREP work b4.

I Really like how they look now but the curb rashes just bug me a bit 2 much. anyone good in photoshop? LOL

So i think a red lip will win

I was thinkin of writing brabus in the rim maybe

I don't think black and yellow would match your red brakes. Black and red would be perfect.

I would remove the screws and anodize them red and paint the wheels glossy black. I remember a few years back they had an anodizing kit you buy at Sears and other places.
