Thumbs up PC Black S2r's with yellow Pinstripe

ok fellas,

so here is the quick rundown, i have always wanted to get my rims black and yellow.

granted these are on a lambo with different style rims, but i'm sure we can all imagine these styles on the S2r's i own.

Pinstriped: powder coat the rims all black, and then get a yellow pinstripe painted on?


here is a side profile of just the rims since i have no current side shots of how my car stands but i figure this would suffice to get me on the right track.


here is my car at its' current stage





also, i have attempted this on photoshop; however, the colors just don't come out right.
if you could assist it would be much appreciated

thanks for looking out. also any opinions, or criticism, in regards to which route would look best on my car is always welcome.

here are some pics other have posted with the pin striping, but since my rims are two piece, and have curvature i don't know which would be the best route?

i like the pin stripe look better. but if u do it make sure you black out the chrome too, otherwise i think it looks kind of funky. a yellow lip is just a bit much for me

i like choice number 2. i noticed the other pics of s2k's you have are like that.

i do like cars like option number 1 when its a really high priced or luxury vehicle. example: white lambo with black wheels and a white barrel and lip. hope that helps you C
