I'm pondering having the lips polished on the Vessel's Breyton shoes. Anyone have a good contact for doing this? I assume Wheelwerks will prolly come up..

Since the vess is a chrome trim whoooore, i'm thinking this little bling might add it to. No?

I would like them polished, but if you have to take it to wheel works don't even bother. Ask around and see who else could get it done.

i voted no because i think it would look stupid unless you darkened the color of the rest of the wheel.

you have a silver car, another shade of silver wheels, another shade of silver bumper sink drain things, etc. keep it consistent!

I dont understand, I have polished all over though (at least that shade, i.e. the window trim, bumper trim, kidney's). :dunno

But thanks, I value all opinions. I will ponder more.

Well since I am the future owner of this car I slept on it and voted polished lip I think it will match nicely with all the trim of the car.

Bigger and lighter wheels would not hurt though.

I heart the Spirits. Way nice wheel.

I'm really not too concerned about the weight, the vessel has enough nautical power that I am happy with. I want looks!

So, Johnny, what way is the wind blowing?

From the south currently, at about 7 MPH. Actually, I think I would like to have the polished. I will be looking into who can do this.

I voted yes. Think it would work really well with your car and the design of those wheels.
