i bought 8mm chrome mettalic vinyls that are for 17 inch motorcycle rims. i plan on using them to do a chrome lip on my zr1s im gong to be painting black.
anyone got any advice or input on how i should go about putting a vinyl chrome lip on the rims?
my main concern is when the car is driving i dont watn the lip to be irregular and oval looking
also if you got pics of rims with different color lips, feel free to share them
thanks

Did gold on my old black 10 spokes. Wanted it to be closer to pewter but still liked them. The decals I bought were pre-cut into quarter sections of the circle. They were a little longer though so you could overlap them making it easier to line the circle up. Its pretty hard not to line it up in a circle, just throw one down against the outside of the lip and start adding the others around the rim.
