EVO8 Enkei decal dimensions

[flaatr]

Can some one with EVO8 Enkei's do me a favor and give me the dimensions of the decal on the face of the rim. I am trying to reproduce these for a set of wheels I am refinishing.

Please try and be as exact as possible and also include the gap between the logo and the E.

I really appreciate the help... I've got a shop that will turn these around quick but I need the size before I head over there.

Duplicolor, Or Plastikote makes spray on paint stripper that works really well, I re-did 2g GSX wheels last summer, Stripped them to bare metal, And repainted them. It was a little bit of a pain, But I would do it again.

I shoulda chemically stripped them since I decided not to media blast... but I didn't because I'm an idiot... oh well.

After sanding I put a lite coat of self etching primer.

Followed by spotting areas with Filler primer and sanding most of it off...

then re-priming with (red) sandable primer which I also sanded most of away using the green etching primer as a guide.

Since I've got a lot of shades between green/grey/red going on I put a coat of primer sealer as a base for the bronze...

Light base surfaces make the bronze brighter, dark surface, like the red primer, would make the bronze darker.

And then finally Bronze (HWP105)... after it cured I applied the decals and sprayed a coat of crystal clear (DA1692) to protect them.

Finished product...

Could have been better as I said if I stripped them completely down but I'm satisfied with them since I'm not trying to build a show car... they are going to get scuffed... It may not be easy to see but I did the inside barrels the same way... I didn't bother with the outside of the barrel since it would never be seen when the tires are mounted.

Hope that helps...
