Default Polish lip or not!

GF curbed my passager front and rear wheel ... they are 19" bronze TE37. The front is pretty bad, but the rear is only 2 really light curb. the lips are anodized, there isn't any shop in town can do anodize on my wheel... So I only have 2 choice, either just fix both the wheel, and paint them fully in bronze, since they both are for the passager side. so i dun think anyone would notice the difference from the driver wheels. 2nd choice would be polishing all 4 lips, which should cost more than just fixing 2.

So what would you guys choose???
anyway it is for a SB 350z...

I voted for leaving it bronze...cuz I've always had a thing for bronze TE-37s. Of course polishing would be awesome, as someone has done it already and painted the centre black. It looks great! But I just love bronze TE-37s...

sorry...I mean I love the solid bronze...including the lip.

I dunno...bronze, polished lip, SB z.....might just seem a bit too "busy". But if its gunmetal or black with a polished lip, that would be awesome. I dunno its just my opinion. But you could try...but just make sure you post pics! And I might drive to Edmonton early June cuz my gf wants to go shopping...and I wanna visit some friends in Calgary as I went to school there for 2 years before (SAIT). So maybe we'll meet up and check out eachother's rides!

Take it easy man. Good luck with your rims.
