Default Wheel Lip Question - Please help

Does anyone know if its possible to apply a thin strip on vinyl on the lip of my wheels to acheive the "time attack" look? If so can you please link a DIY if there is one? I tried searching but I couldnt find anything. I dont want to paint the lip.

Thanks

It's possible because someone was selling a set of black wheels on a 2IS. It had the vinyl strip on one pic and it didn't have it on the other pic. You may want to ask him.

thats all it is on wheels anyways... just go to a vinyl / graphics shop with something drawn out and they can cut it for you... installation will be a pain tho...

I was planning on buying some from aerotec and try to do it myself. Yea, I already assumed the install would be a PITA.
