if your car is low, the polished lip would be hot

Polished lip looks great on almost anything, but if you are trying to do away with the chrome shine, then you don't want it.

Take Jamolies pict, and photoshop like silver around the edges to create the "polished lip" look. Then compare the before and after and decide which u like best

even if he did choose a polished lip its not going to be as distiguisable bc of the hyperblack rim. i actually think it would look like vomit on a hyperblack. i vote no on polished lip.
