Decided to run 15x7 cookies all around. Cookies on a mid year just works. Brushed the lips, blacked the center, entire wheel has been cleared

Those cookies look really nice!!! I was wondering what gloss clear would look like on brushed lips.

They are actually a flat black but the lighting is throwing it off. They are way more “flat” in person

Jim - Wow- that car looks beautiful!! You do incredible work.

Did you plate the parts yourself or have it done?

I’m not entirely sure the reason but they were done this way at factory. I could be wrong but I believe at one point it was brushed on. Maybe to “finish” the look where door panels don’t cover
