There was a recent post about iForged having the option. I think thats who it was. That would look good on your car.

You mean like these? I can get you a set of custom pained iForged or DPE Forged wheels like this. They aren't cheap since the custom paint is an option. Probably looking at around $3500/set for 18x9 and 18x10 2-pc wheels.

Walkin to the beach i saw a red lambo with black centers with a red lip an a HUGE MF lip in the rears. Thought it was a muscle car when i first heard it an then it came by an just rumbled off the buildings in the city loud as hell. Sickest car ive ever seen in person. An if you got the cash I'd say go for it it'd look sick on your car specially some iforgeds.

I think anodized look for the lip with black center would look hot. I have a pic of blue zo6 with center black and blue/anodized lip. Basically the lip has chrome but painted over with special paint to let the shine come thru. You check out Duplicolor's website to see what I mean by the paint over chrome.

DAm that an awesome looking viper... Thats the look I am after just not for $3500... Is it possible to have a body shop tape off the black on my wheels and possibly paint my polished lip red on my z06 wheels?

Your Z06 wheels have no lip. I'd say they are in lip debt and actually owe someone some lip. It won't be the same effect as the car above.

There were tons of cars at the SEMA show with painted wheels, here are photos I snapped:

No, Fikses are only available with black anodized centers. You can have them painted yourself though.
