you think you could give my Enkei 92s a shot at getting those lips polished and maybe try to fix the minor curb rash? Too bad my dremel is shot cause i could smooth them out with that...blahh

They almost look slightly textured..was going to ask if you used Plasti-Dip until I read the whole page and found out its paint. They look good though!

I painted my wheels a couple months ago, they came out great but I'm guessing from gravel and such over the past couple months I can see tinyy chips on the lips If I decide to re-finish them before I get new wheels, I'm going to go over them with Plasti-Dip

haha did you clear them? the clear is to protect them from things like that... and they do have a textured look, but they are extremely smooth even before buff, but i really like that it has a 3D-ish look to it...

Yes I did. Coated them with multiple coats of clear.
What kind of paint did you use?

its some paint made for wheels, its really thick so the wheels have about 3 light coats to prevent runs and such... i treated it like normal paint at first on one wheels and it was terrible, but i had plenty of sand paper so i fixed it haha

Haha yeah, I used wheel paint aswell.

Here's how mine turned out. Can't really see them the best but you can get an idea.
Then, color matched the center caps
