Definitely not, it looks decent on the BMW, but looks like trash on the TSX, not to imagine how bad it would look while the wheel is spinning, I assume you used some sort of brush for application there is no way you can get it perfectly straight on the rim therefore it’s going to look bad when the wheel is spinning.

One of the blokes on the TL boards did it to his TL-S stockies... looked pretty good to me. I've always loved the Time Attack color scheme, and would actually rock 'em on my whip if not for the chrome trim all over the car... and I'm too lazy to black everything out...

I think it looks pretty good on your PWP... the Time Attack color scheme always looks good on white cars.

Well the thing is, I think the BMW is actually painted on properly, but the OP is just using tape to get an idea of what it would look like.

If you had it professionally painted on your stock wheels, it would look good, IMO.

It flows better with the style of the BMW rim.. the TSX's style rim doesnt go well with the look.

^^^Meh... it's all different strokes for different folks. I personally prefer dark black or gunmetal wheels to silver wheels, especially with the Time Attack color scheme.

I think there's overlapping @ the end of the tape or something.

The BMW one's pull it off pretty nice because the rim looks good itself, as for the 06TSX rim, it's not really that nice. Again, it's the rim design and has nothing to deal w/ your TA application.
