this is what i was thinking, paint the red, caliper paint 1st. then tape, probably would be better with the tire off, just half the tape over the rim lip then paint black. glad i have a spare from when i bent it to practice on

Did you mask off the tires or did you take them off? Also, What is the name of the color spray paint you used?

I guess...Its hard to tell w/ a PS if I like it. The black and blue Z's posted earlier look great, but Im not sure on red. I dont wanna do them black b/c I just dont really like it now that lots of people have done it.
