Default rim stripes

Ive been looking around and came across rim stripes that go on the wheels, thought it looked really cool, well anyways. Does anybody know where to find these, or better yet has anybody done this to their bike. I kinda wanna know how hard it is to do, and if anybody has some good pics of it. thanks

ive seen the rim stripes on ebay for around 20 bucks. They look pretty good. There are some pics on ebay if you want to check them out. If you get the right color to match your bike then you'll be all set. Hope this helps

I got mine from alloutgraphics.com you wont see them listed but I know the guy and he does sell them. You might wanna shoot him (Mike) an email to see if he can beat that price.

Hey guys, had the same sorta question. I was wondering if you took your wheel off to put the stripe on? Also ive seen alot of pics of f4i's with polished rim lips. How are they doing this, just sanding the paint off? thanks, kevin

Thanks Wigs. Long, you do not need to remove the wheels, just turn the wheel and put it on 1/2 an inch at a time. Comes out pretty damn good.

Hey RRip, is the rim stripes reflective tape? or is it just red film? Ive been lookin at other websites and it says they are reflective when car headlights shine on them.
