you could probly use a brush and just do some pinstriping around the edge of the wheel, that would be the best way if you can pinstripe well, taping that off would be a pita

Wow, that's overpriced. $600 for a full lip job?

He'll yeah!! Are they gonna do a pinstripe paint job or thicker? For that amount of money I'd either get new rims or do it myself. That's too much money

nah not going to be a pinstripe job, its going to cover the whole chrome part around my rims, there is alot of time involved taping off, scuffing, painting, clearing etc to get a reputable job done not a hack job. I got around 700 extra a month to spend, one of these months ill get around to doing it.
