Should or Shouldn't I have a lip made for the velocity CSL reps

I'm planing to get 19" VMR CSL reps on hyperblack. Now, I'm sort of thinking if I should have a lip made maybe montego blue to match my cars color. But I am not sure if this would look nice or not. Any input? Thanks

It could look good if you go with a dark finish for the wheel (Hyperblack). If you are going to keep them silver, forgo the strip IMO.

I think the regular hyperblacks will already look amazing on the wheels. No need to the time attack stripe.

do you have a picture of the rims with a dark finish lip? I was actually thinking of a lip color that would match my montego blue. That is why I asked if a blue lip with the csl would look good or not

Here's what I usually recommend for those that want CSL-like wheels with a lip.

VMR V-715
