Rotiform BLQ -- Fun W/ Paint

I apologize in advance for the crude imagery, but I'm hope you can see where I'm getting at; i.e. this isn't so much a question of fitment as it is paint/ powder coat. I'm throwing around the idea of getting the barrel/ inside edge/ spokes, and/ or all the above colored blue, but I'm a little new to this process.
Whoring
I'm assuming Rotiform could probably custom make this for me, but is there an alternative that might be better suited, like taping them off and painting them, painting/ powder coating certain sections? For some reason I though you could powder coat the whole wheel and have the face machined -- not sure. Interpretations and opinions are always appreciate.If the statement "originality is dead" were true, vwvortex would be a series of Polaroid photographs and ham radio broadcasts. If the geriatrics thought VW's had limited potential, they'd probably spend their time acquiring parts from other manufactures and building entire cars from scratch. Remediation is the key element in creativity. Why should I care that about something I've seen 23,855,208, 120 times?

definitely not that blue on that red car. Or that gray one either.

Do the blue cuts like in your first and second pics, and fully mirror polished faces.

I got ya. It's hard to see it exactly with Paint -or imagination- but I think I get the idea. Originally Posted by kevin FaKiN spLits
