    good luck

    I've got 15 rims to do so this will make painting rims a breeze

    I got these pics from a web site (cant remember where) Credits to who ever thought of this method

    you got the pics from scotts ss resto website...
    just a point with these..the ones pictured on scotts site are canadian rims which have a sharper edge..from what scott tells me the roh rims will need a template taken from them as well to do properly..
