(6th one up from the bottom)

no where near as simple as I expected, can't simply draw over the letters, have make a blob of paint on a piece of card, "dip" the nib of the pen in it and carefully do small bits at a time as the paint is rather thin so runs if you use too much..
 
looks good, my mate did is yokos on his mini (proper mini) and it looked really good! it didnt last long tho so it looked a bit naff when he didnt have time to re-do it
 
was thinking on doing this to mine if i upgrade to some r888's as i'm rolling on some crap like kingstars at the min defo worth it if they stay white for a while

haha same as me..I was on nangkang or something so I thought I'd wait till I got something half decent on there...
 
^^^indeed

i was thinking of doing this with my goodies but was unsure if it was worth it for how long it would last..

i think it would look good with the willies and the flaps

looks nice above
 
Doesn't last long at all. I got bored doing the first coat hense why only one Avon is done on each tyre. Basically a waste of time lol
 
mine has started to come off already but i didn't protect it or anything, gonna go over it some point next week and tidy it up a bit. I like it but I do'nt know if I can be bothered to re-do it every other week....
 
shame some tyres dont come like that with white rubber all the way through so it never wears down :(

if you protect properly with a hard coating it should last a few months unless you do the drive through car wash thingy
 
Nope it'll still come off. The tyre sidewall flex's as you go along. So it just cracks paint off. I'd need to be a rubberised paint for it to work spot on.
 
mmmm did it on the trophy cus i was bored, wont do again though not long lasting stuff, looks ok to start with, then cracks & flakes off?, when you drive down the shops n back.
 
O and once again the inner chav come out eh Ryan with that and the neon lights omg, but fair play i do like looks sweet!

haha I can't help it....it's in the blood, i do my best to hide it then bam! chav insperation takes over!

It does look good and I'll keep re-doing till i run out of paint then won't buy anymore...worth doing for shows etc but not really for everyday use...
