well I finally got these done yesterday. and here is what I ended up with. I know they are not perfect, but being my "beater wheels" i don't really care. I used a flat clear coat on them.

thanx guys.
on the pin stripe, I painted the wheel first and then use some thin pinstripe tape and put that on, PITA to keep straight, and then clear coated over the tape and the rest of the wheel.
