Can anyone tell me where I can get some masking kits for the centre of some 14" and 15" GTS wheels. I saw some on eBay a while back but now I cannot find them. I do not want to have to spend an eternity masking these suckers out.
Thanks in advance.

FYI,
U can use RARES kit if you wish. Sounds good. I did mine with bog standard clear contact paper from the NEWSAGENT. However, you need to find contact that is light, flexible, and very tacky, yet DOES not pull the paint off. It has to be tacky so th
