That's funny you commented on these... I actually got the black wheel/polished lip idea from your pics as you were outfitting your rig. I thought they looked sweet with the stripes.
How did you get the stripes off? I don't think I'll mess with that now but it will need paint at some point in a few years and it may be easier to get rid of them vs having them paint new ones.
Where are your most recent pics? I couldn't find the post stripe pics on your profile.
Ya my profile pic shows my SMB filthy on the Dempster Hwy, the stripes really grew on me and really liked the look. The stripes stayed on till the day i had to let it go. Being painted on, there's really no easy way to remove them. Your van looks fantastic, i'd leave em.
