    I have seen bike wheels that have been pin striped. As in painted one
    colour and then have a (usually orange) stripe put round the rim.

    Anyone got a good photo of an example of such a thing?

    Happy Noo Year!

    Prolly find it's not paint, but stick on.

    A mate of mine has done this to his R1 most effectively using the
    (straight) stick on stuff from Halfords

    It does. My old boss fitted one of those gash GO!!!!!!! Rossi replica
    decal kits to Bear's old R1. All that came with was a roll of pinstripe
    to do the wheels with and they look ok once fitted, if you like that
    sort of thing. I have to say I think it looks fucking cack, but there
    you go. 'orses for courses.

    All that came with was a roll of
    GSXR, white wheels, go figure! They paint them with tippex and they are a
    **** to keep clean.

    I think black wheels with a pinstripe are the way to go forward.

    On a similar vein, I found gold plated bar ends on Ebay!

    Paint shop reckons that they can do it, dont know how though and the money
    is right.

    They put 3 layers of laquer on afterwards also, they reckon that its better
    than a powercoat!

    One who habitually over-uses, to the point of pain to the reader, the
    humble exclamation mark, or bang. I really cannot believe that you
    are incapable of ending a sentence with a period, but you seem to
    absolutely have to exclaim everything in a rushed and breathless
    manner akin to typing everything in upper case.
    Hom, perhaps. Neg, certainly. In writing style only, you'll be
    relieved to know. Your implied sexuality doesn't interest me in the
    slightest.
