wow, i think that it looks really good. pretty much what i was hoping it would look like. thanks a lot i appreiciate it.

 

I bought wheel stripes for my bike but can't decide if I want to put them on or polish the wheel lips instead. The bike is red & black, nothing else is polished or shiney minus the exhaust so not sure.

 

How long did it take you to polish your rims, was it easy, what paint stripper did you use or would any work, and finally was it worth the time and effort?

 

Go with the rim stripes, get the precurved ones of off ebay, they take 30 minutes to put them on. If you don't like it, you have only pissed away $20 and they'll peel right off. I got them on mine and I like them. I got the thin ones (I think TheX had the wider ones), the thinner ones would allow some of the polish to show through.

Post pics when you are done.

 

Is it just me, or does it look like that chain needs some help.

 

What kind of help? If your referring to the color, that's the natural color.
